NOTICE! 


The  aim  of  the  compilers  of  this  work  has  been  to  make  it  as  complete  as  possible, 
and  to  that  end  the  management  of  all  principal  railroads  have  been  requested  to  fur- 
nish copies  of  their  regulations  governing  employes  in  train  and  yard  service,  and  the 
rates  of  pay,  etc.  As  shown  by  the  contents,  many  of  the  leading  lines  have  complied 
with  the  request;  others  have  refused  to  give  for  publication  the  information  asked, 
while  a  few  have  ignored  the  request. 

This  work  is  gotten  out  by  the  Brotherhood  of  Railroad  Trainmen  at  considerable 
expense,  not  as  an  advertisement,  nor  with  the  hopes  of  realizing  a  money  profit  there- 
from, but  as  a  book  of  reference  for  the  enlightenment  of  its  members,  and  we  believe 
It  will  be  found  a  valuable  book  for  managers  and  their  superintendents. 

Supplements  to  this  work  will  be  issued  from  time  to  time  as  important  changes  in 
rates,  etc.,  shall  make  it  necessary. 

A  limited  number  of  copies  of  this  work  can  be  supplied  to  those  wanting  them  at 
$2.00  per  copy.  Address:

ters stating  time  of  service,  in  what  capacity  employed  and  cause  for  leaving  the  ser-

thinks  his  sentence  unjust,  he  shall  have  the  right  within  ten  days  to  refer  his  case 
by  written  statement  to  the  Division  Superintendent.     Within  ten  days  of  the  receipt 
of  this  notice  his  case  shall  have  a  thorough  investigation  by  the  proper  officer  of  the 
Railroad  Company,  at  which  he  may  be  present  if  he  so  desires,  and  also  be  repre- 
sented by  any  disinterested  employe  of  his  choice.     In  case  he  shall  not  be  satisfied 
with  the  result  of  said  investigation,  he  shall  have  the  right  to  appeal  to  the  General 
Superintendent  and  to  the  General  Manager.     In  case  of  intoxication  or  insubordina- 
tion, dismissal  will  follow  without  hearing,  as  above  provided.     In  case  suspension  or

accord,  they  shall  not  be  reinstated.     Leave  of  absence  will  not  be  granted  for  more

Brakeman  shall  be  assigned  to  other  service,  or  dismissed  from  the  service  if  the  cir-

treatment  unjust,  he  shall  have  the  right  within  ten  days,  to  refer  his  case  by  written 
statement  to  the  Division  Superintendent,  and  within  ten  days  of  the  receipt  of  this

Company,  at  which  he  may  be  present,  if  he  so  desires,  and  also  be  represented  by  any 
disinterested  employe  of  his  choice.     In  case  he  is  not  satisfied  with  the  result  of  such 
investigation,  he  shall  have  the  right  to  appeal  to  the  General  Superintendent.     The 
decision  of  the  Division  Superintendent,  however,  shall  be  final  unless  the  employe  sees 
fit  to  appeal  to  the  General  Superintendent,  as  above  provided.     Any  employe  will  be

the  Trainmen  there  are  too  many  crews,  a  committee  of  Trainmen  in  good  standing 
employed  on  the  division  may  call  the  attention  of  the  Trainmaster  or  Superintendent 
to  such  surplus  of  men,  when  the  matter  will  be  fully  investigated  and  if  Division  Su- 
perintendent finds  condition  to  warrant  it,  a  reduction  in  force  will  be  made,  such  re- 
duction to  be  made  in  order  of  promotion.

in  which  will  be  entered  the  train  called  for  and  leaving  time  of  same.     Men  called 
will  sign  this  book,  entering  the  time  called.     The  time  of  men  will  begin  at  time  set 
for  departure  of  their  train'  unless  they  leave  earlier.

graphic notice  in  sufficient  time  to  avoid  delays,  to  the  Trainmaster  or  Superintendent, 
and  will  be  entitled  to  eight  hours'  rest  before  being  again  called  for  service,  except 
incase  of  wrecks,  washouts  or  similar  emergencies. 

20.  Trainmen  attending  court  at  the  request  of  an  officer  of  the  Company  will  be

igoods. 

22.  The  oldest  Conductor  or  Brakeman  shall  have  preference  of  runs  in  his  class, 
merit  being  equal;  of  this  the  superintendent  is  to  be  judge. 

23.  Conductors  will  be  promptly  notified  in  writing  of  any  errors  discovered  or  cor- 
rections made  in  their  time  slips. 

24.  In  case  a  Conductor  or  Brakemen  believes  discharge  or  suspension  to  be  unjust, 
lie  shall  have  a  right  to  within  10  days  make  out  a  written  statement  of  the  facts  in 
the  premises  and  submit  the  same  to  his  Superintendent,  and  at  the  same  time  desig- 
nate any  employe  of  the  Colorado  Midland  Railway  of  his  class  on  the  same  division,  wl .  o, 
with  the  Superintendent,  shall  investigate  the  case  in  question,  and  when  at  all  practi- 
cable such  investigation  shall  be  made  within  five  days  from  date  of  receipt  of  the  state- 
ment of  the  employe.     In  case  the  discharge  or  suspension  is  decided  to  have  been  un- 
just, he  shall  be  reinstated  and  paid  for  all  the  time  lost  on  such  account.     If  dismissed, 
employe  upon  request  will  be  given  letter  stating  cause  of  dismissal;  exception  to  this 
rule  in  cases  of  intoxication  or  insubordination,  in  which  cases  no  investigation  will  be 
held. 

25.  All  employes  will  be  regarded  in  line  of  promotion  dependent  upon  the  faith- 
iul  discharge  of  their  duties,  capacity  for  increased  responsibility,  and  term  of  ser- 
ice,  merit  being  equal,  of  which  the  Superintendent  is  to  be  judge,  except  in  filling  va- 
cancies in  the  ranks  of  freight  Conductors;  for  every  two  men  promoted  from  the  ranks 
one  Conductor  may  be  hired  as  a  Conductor,  or  promoted  from  the  ranks  regardless  of 
age  in  service  provided  he  has  had  at  least  one  year  of  actual  experience  as  a  Con- 
ductor.   In  filling  vacancies  in  the  ranks  of  through  passenger  Conductors,  as  soon  as 


A.,    T.    &    S.    F.    SUPPLEMENT.— ATLANTIC   &    DANVILLE   RAILWAY.  19 


practicable,  the  number  of  First  and  Second  Division  men  employed  as  through  pas- 
senger Conductors,  will  be  made  equal,  and  thereafter  this  equality  will  be  observed 
by  the  promotion  of  Second  division  men  to  fill  the  vacancies  caused  by  the  retirement 
of  Second  Division  men.  Yard  employes  can  claim  no  rights  in  road  service,  and  vice 
versa. 

26.  No  more  crews  will  be  kept  in  service  than  are  necessary  to  move  the  business 
with  promptness  and  certainty.     When  crews  are   laid  off  on   account  of  dullness  of 
business,  it  will  be  done   in   order  of  dates   of   their  employment,  beginning  with  the 
Conductors  and  Brakemen  last  employed. 

27.  No  departure  from  the  provisions  of  this  agreement  will  be  made  by  any  party 
thereto  except  after  thirty  days  notice  of  such  a  desire,  in  writing,    has   been   served 
upon  the  other  parties  thereto. 

28.  The  articles  enumerated  herein  constitute,    in   their  entirety,    an   agreement 
between  the  Company  and  its  Second  Division  Freight  Conductors  and  Brakemen,  and 
all  schedules,  rules  and  regulations  previously  in  effect,    and   in  conflict  herewith,  are 
by  this  agreement  abolished.

SUPPLEMENT  TO  A.  T.  &  S.  F.  SCHEDULE. 


A.  B.  Garretson,  Grand  Senior  Conductor  O.   Tt.  C.,  and  P.  H.   Morrissey,  1st    Vice  Grand 

Master  B.  of  B.  T.: 

GENTLEMEN:  In  connection  with  our  proposed  schedule  of  rates  and  regulations 
to  take  effect  April  1st,  there  were  certain  matters  agreed  upon  which  are  not  men- 
tioned in  said  schedule,  of  which  the  following  is  a  memorandum:  Two  Brakemen  are 
to  be  placed  on  through  passenger  trains  between  Chicago  and  Kansas  City.  The 
present  mileage  limit  of  passenger  crews  now  running  over  4,000  miles  per  month  is 
not  to  be  increased,  except  in  case  of  fast  runs  and  then  in  accordance  with  the  con- 
ditions of  the  schedule.  On  the  Rio  Grande  Division,  passenger  crews  are  to  run  be- 
tween Albuquerque  and  El  Paso,  instead  of  Silver  City,  and  the  necessary  number  of 
crews  to  handle  the  business  will  be  placed  on  the  run  between  Rincon  and  Silver  City. 
Brakemen  on  Chanute  extension,  passenger  train,  will  receive  $60.00  per  month. 
Western  Division  passenger  crews  running  between  Denver  and  Cooledge  to  receive 
highest  rate  of  pay.  Freight  runs,  Topeka  to  St.  Joseph,  to  be  paid  on  mileage  basis. 
Present  conditions  relative  to  coaling  engines  by  trainmen  to  remain  in  force  until 
other  satisfactory  arrangements  can  be  made,  Strong  City  Branch,  Topeka  and  Kansas 
City  and  Kansas  City  and  Emporia  Branch  local  passenger  crews  to  receive  $125.00 
and  $60.00per  month.  Passenger  crews  who  are  now  by  reason  of  long  runs  and  con- 
tinuous service,  granted  an  occasional  day  or  Sunday  off,  will  receive  same  consid- 
eration. Pay  of  men  on  Arkansas  City,Purcell  local  freight  not  to  be  reduced  by  reason 
of  this  schedule,  so  long  as  run  remains  as  it  now  is.  It  should  be  also  understood  that 
in  cases  of  breach  of  trust,  where  the  general  officers  are  satisfied  beyond  a  doubt  that 
trainmen  are  dishonest,  they  reserve  the  right  to  dismiss  said  trainmen  from  the  ser- 
vice without  formal  investigation  as  provided  for  in  above  mentioned  schedule. 
Should  the  general  or  division  officers  of  your  orders  question  the  justice  of  such  dis 
missal, the  management  will  endeavor  to  satisfy  them  that  such  action  is  justified. 

Accepted  for  the  O.  R.  C.:  Yours  truly,

the  men  to  make  reasonable  wages,  a  sufficient  number  of  crews  will  be  taken  off,  com- 
mencing with  the  youngest  in  the  service  on  each  district.  Conductors  thus  reduced5

who  is  employed  on  the  same  division  to  be  present  at  the  investigation.  Conductors 
and  trainmen  who  may  be  suspended  will  be  given  a  hearing  by  the  Trainmaster  with- 
in seven  days,  and  will  be  notified  promptly  of  the  result  of  the  investigation.  If  sus- 
pension is  the  punishment,  it  shall  date  from  the  day  taken  off  for  investigation.  Ira 
case  the  Conductor  or  trainman  suspended,  is  found  to  be  innocent,  he  will  be  paid 
half-time  for  the  time  lost. 

ART.  11.  In  case  a  difference  of  opinion  as  to  the  construction  of  this  agreement,, 
should  arise  between  the  Conductors  and  trainmen  and  the  division  officers,  a  written 
statement  of  the  questions  at  issue  must  be  submitted  to  the  General  Manager,  through 
the  Division  Superintendent,  for  his  construction.

Crews  Attending  Court:  Trainmen  attending  court  on  the  Company's  business  will 
be  allowed  regular  pay. 

Rest:  Trainmen,  after  a  continuous  service  of  16  hours  or  more,  shall  take  suffi- 
cient rest  before  they  are  again  called  for  service,  except  in  case  of  wrecks  or  similar 
emergencies.  Trainmen  living  within  one  mile  of  yard  offices  should  be  called  to  go 
out  as  near  as  practicable  two  hours  before  the  time  they  are  expected  to  leave,  the 
caller  to  have  a  book  in  which  the  trainmen  shall  register  their  names  and  the  time 
called.  Any  Conductor  or  Brakeman  failing  to  respond  after  thus  being  called  shall 
be  liable  to  suspension  or  discharge,  as  the  general  superintendent  or  super-indent  of 
transportation  may  determine.  Their  time  will  begin  two  hours  after  they  sign  the 
caller's  book,  unless  they  go  on  duty  sooner.  When  trainmen  are  called  for  a  train, 
and  the  said  train  is  afterward  annulled,  the  Conductor  shall  receive  25  cents  per  hour 
and  the  Brakemen  15  cents  an  hour  for  the  time  held,  and  shall  stand  first  out.  Train- 
men will  be  notified  when  time  is  not  allowed,  as  per  time  slip,  and  of  the  reason  why  it 
was  not  allowed. 

Trainmen  Taken  off  Run:  If  a  trainman  is  relieved  from  duty  for  any  cause,  he 
shall  be  granted  a  thorough  investigation,  hearing  and  decision  within  five  days,  at 
which  investigation  he  shall  have  the  right  to  be  present  and  to  have  another  Conduc- 
tor or  Brakeman,  as  the  case  may  be,  of  his  selection,  to  appear  and  speak  for  him.  and 
shall  have  the  right  to  appeal  from  the  local  to  the  general  officers  of  the  road,  and  a 
decision  in  five  days  after  presenting  his  appeal,  and,  in  case  such  decision  is  not 
made  within  five  days  on  such  appeal,  one-half  pay  shall  begin  and  continue  until  such 
decision  is  made. 

Promotions:  Trainmen  will  be  in  the  line  of  promotion  according  to  their  time  of 
service,  dependent  upon  their  general  good  conduct,  faithful  discharge  of  their  duties, 
and  their  ability  to  assume  increased  responsibilities,  the  superintendent  of  transpor- 
tation to  be  judge  of  such  qualification.  Promotion  in  the  train  service  to  be  confined 
to  the  ranks  of  train  employes  as  above.  When  practicable,  Conductors  and  Brakemen 
will  be  assigned  to  regular  runs;  on  all  freight  trains,  except  local  freight  trains,  they 
will  run  first  in,  first  out,  unless  the  service  requires  it  otherwise.  The  right  to  regular 
runs  will  be  governed  by  merit,  ability  and  seniority.  Everything  being  equal,  the 
Conductor  and  Brakeman  longest  in  faithful  service  will  have  the  preference. 

Turnaround  between  Chicago  and  Momence  will  be  paid:  Conductors,  first  class, 
$3.50,  second  class,  $3.25:  Brakemen,  $2.30  per  round  trip,  overtime  to  be  allowed  after 
six  hours  each  way.  Short  runs  not  otherwise  specified,  where  mileage  is  50  miles  or 
less,  will  be  allowed  50  miles;  over  50  miles  and  less  than  100  miles  to  be  allowed  100 
miles,  provided  no  other  mileage  is  made  on  that  same  day.  If  aggregate  mileage 
made  on  any  one  day  equals  or  exceeds  100  miles,  actual  mileage  will  govern.  Dates 
to  begin  and  end  at  midnight,  and  each  trip  to  date  from  starting  time.  When  the 
freight  traffic  is  so  light  that  the  crews  in  service  are  not  able  to  make  reasonable 
wages,  crews  will  be  taken  off,  beginning  with  the  youngest  men,  until  the  crews  left 
in  service  are  able  to  make  reasonable  wages.  Conductors  taken  off  under  this  rule 
will  be  given  preference  as  Brakemen,  and  again  placed  on  their  runs  when  business 
demands  an  increase  of  crews. 

In  connection  with  the  schedule  agreed  upon  and  effective  February  1,  1892,  it  is 
further  agreed  that  on  July  15,  1892,  the  same  shall  be  revised,  and  if  the  committee

pay  the  necessary  expenses  of  the  committee.  It  is  further  agreed  that  the  schedule 
as  amended  and  revised  on  July  15,  1892,  shall  provide  that  the  rates  of  pay  to  the  lo- 
cal freight  Conductors  shall  be  made  uniformly  $85.00  per  month,  and  local  freight 
Brakenieii  $57.50  per  month.  The  rates  of  pay  to  through  freight  trainmen  will  be 
made  2.95  cents  and  1.95  cents  per  mile,  respectively,  for  Conductors  and  Brakemen. 
and  that  the  rates  for  overtime  shall  be  291  and  19i  cents  per  hour,  respectively.  On 
July  15,  1892,  the  agreement  shall  be  made  to  stand  for  one  year.  On  July  15,  1893,  the 
standard  rate  of  3  and  2  cents  per  mile,  and  of  30  and  20  cents  per  hour  for  overtime, 
respectively,  for  Conductors  and  Brakemen,  will  be  established.  It  is  further  agreed 
that  on  July  15,  1892.  the  pay  of  Conductors  of  suburban  trains  will  be  made  $95.00  per 
month,  and  the  pay  of  Conductors  on  Grape  Creek  run  will  be  made  $80.00  per  month.

time  for  2,600  miles  shall  be  allowed. 

3.  The  first  year's  service  is  to  consist  of  12  calendar  months.

ness, and  the  Conductor  still  remains  in  the  employ  of  the  Company  as  Brakeman,   his 
promotion  is  to  date  from  the  time  he  made  his  first  trip  as  Conductor,   and  he  shall

is  less  than  60  miles  per  day,  where  the  Company  reserves  the  right  to  make  special 
agreements  with  its  Conductors  as  to  the  compensation  they  shall  receive.

hour  before  the  leaving  time  of  their  trains.  They  will  be  paid  for  all  delayed  time  at  ter- 
minal stations,  provided  the  delay  exceeds  one  hour.  They  will  also  be  paid  for  all 
delayed  time  between  terminal  stations  in  case  of  accidents,  washouts,  snow,,  or  un-

5.  Conductors  will  have  the  right  to  object  to  Brakemen  for  cause,  and  when 
jections  are  sustained  by  facts  they  will  be  furnished  with  other  men. 

6.  It  is  the  rule  of  the  Company  to  run  freight  crews  first  in,  first  out.     This   ru 
however,  cannot  be  rigidly  carried  out  at  all  times,  and  the  proper  officers  of  the  Co

8.  When  light  engines  or  trains  of  other  companies  are  run  on  main  line  and  prin- 
ml  branches,  a  Conductor  will  be  sent  in  charge,  when  practicable,  who  will  act  as- 
ot. 

9.  Should  a  train  be  compelled  to  double  a  hill,  crews  will  be  paid  for  one  hour's- 
ne  at  the  rate  of  30  cents  for  Conductors  and  20  cents  for  Brakemen. 

10.  The  right  to  regular  runs  and  promotion  will  be  governed  by  merit,  ability  and 
niority,  everything  being  equal:  the  Conductor,  Brakemen  or  Yardman  longest  in  the 
rvice  will  have  preference;  the  Superintendent  to  be  the  judge  as  to  qualifications. 
>thing  in  this  rule  shall  be  construed  to  mean  that  the  Company  will  not  employ  men 
)m  other  roads  when,  in  the  judgment  of  the  officers,  it  is  expedient  to  do  so. 

11.  No  employe  will  be  suspended  or  discharged  without  just  cause.     In  case  of  sus-

13.  When  traffic  becomes  so  light  that  reasonable  monthly  wages  cannot  be  mader 
e  number  of  crews  will  be  reduced.     Other  things  being  equal  the  youngest  men  will 

laid  off,  the  Superintendent  to  be  the  judge  as  to  qualifications.     It  is  the  intention 
so  apportion  the  crews  that  they  may  make  approximately  2,600  miles  per  month. 

14.  When  crews  are  required  to  do  switching  at  terminal  stations,  they  will  be  paid 
r  such  switching  at  the  rate  of  30  cents  per  hour  for  Conductors  and  20  cents  for 

akemen  after  the  first  30  minutes,  excepting  when  pay  is  arranged  to  include  such 
t  itching-. 

15.  Where  callers  are  furnished  by  the  Company  and  men  live  within  reasonable 
nits— to  be  fixed  by  the  Trainmaster  or  Superintendent — crews  will  be  called  within  a 
asonable  time  of  the  departure  of  their  trains,  except  in  case  of  emergency.     Such 
Hers  will  be  provided  with  a  book  in  which  shall  be  entered  the  leaving  time  of  the 
ains.     Men  who  are  so  called  shall  in  each  instance  register  their  names  with  the

17.  Trainmen  attending  court  under  instructions  from  the  Company  will  be  paid 
11  rates  for  time  lost,  and  living  expenses  if  away  from  home;  the  Company  to  re- 
ive the  witness  fees. 

18.  In  all  the  above  rules  where  pay  per  hour  or  per  day  is  mentioned,  it  refers  to 
en  of  the  first  class.     A  Conductor  is  of  the  first  class  when  he  has  served  as  such  six.

ections  are  sustained  by  facts  they  will  be  furnished  with  other  men. 

6.  It  is  the  rule  of  the  Company   to  run   freight  crews  "first  in,  first  out."    This 
rule,  however,  cannot  be  rigidly  carried  out  at  all  times,  and  the  proper  officers  of  the 
Company  will  vary  from  the  rule  as  circumstances  require. 

7.  Trainmen  dead-heading  over  the  road    on  Company  business,    on  passengf-r

the  service  will  have  preference,  the  Superintendent  to  be  judge  as  to  qualification.

CHICAGO,  BURLINGTON  &  QUINCY  RAILWAY.— MISSOURI  LINES. 


Nothing1  in  this  rule  shall  be  construed  to  mean  that  the  Company  will  not  employ 
men  from  other  roads  when,  in  the  judgment  of  its  officers,  it  is  expedient  to  do  so. 

11.  No  employe  will  be  suspended  or  discharged  without  just  cause.      In  case 
of  suspension  or  discharge  of  any  employe,  except  for  insubordination  or  intoxication, 
he  may,  if  he  desires,  have  a  thorough  investigation  by  the  proper  officers.     Such  de- 
sire shall  be  signified  within  five  (5)  days  of  the   date   of  suspension  or  discharge,  and 
the  investigation  shall  be  begun  within  ten   (10)   days   from   such  notice,  and  proceed 
with  as  little  interruption  as  may  be  until   completed.     The  employe  shall  have  full 
opportunity  to  present  his  case  and  to  offer  testimony.     If  the  suspension   or   dismissal 
shall  be  found  to  have  been  without  just  cause,  the   employe  shall  be  reinstated  and 
paid  full  time  for  the  period  out  of  service. 

12.  When  a  Conductor  is  assigned  to  a  regular  passenger  run  he  will  not  be  used 
in  freight  or  construction  service  unless  in  case  of  necessity. 

13.  When  traffic  becomes  so  light  that  reasonable  monthly  wages  cannot  be  made, 
the  number  of  crews  will  be  reduced.     Other  things  being  equal  the  youngest  men  will 
be  laid  off,  the  Superintendent  to  be  the  judge  as  to  qualifications.  It  is  the  intention  to 
so  apportion  the  crews  that  they  may  make  approximately  2,600  miles  per  month. 

14.  When  crews  are  required  to  do  switching  at  terminal  stations,    they  will  be 
paid  for  such  switching  at  the  rate  of  30  cents  per  hour  for  Conductors  and  20  cents  for 
Brakemen  after  the  first  thirty  minutes,  excepting  when  pay  is  arranged  to  include 
such  switching. 

15.  Where  Callers  are  furnished  by  the  Company,  and  men  live  within  reasonable 
limits  (to  be  fixed  by  the  Trainmaster  or  Superintendent)  crews  will  be  called  within  a 
reasonable  time  of  the  departure  of  their  trains,  except  in  case   of  emergency.     Such 
Callers  will  be  provided  with  a  book  in  which  shall  be  entered  the  leaving  time  of  the 
trains.    Men  who  are  so  called  shall  in  each  instance  register  their  names  with  the 
time  they  are  called.     The  above  does  not  include  men   who  are  assigned  to  regular 
runs  whose  trains  leave  during  the  day  time. 

16.  If  a  trip  report  is  incorrect,  the  trainman  will  be  notified  in  writing. 

17.  Trainmen  attending  court  under  instructions  from  the  Company  will  be   paid 
full  rates  for  time  lost,  and  living  expenses  if  away  from  home;  the  Company  to  re- 
ceive the  witness  fees. 

18.  In  all  the  above  rules  where  pay  per  hour  or  per  day  is  mentioned,  it  refers  to 
men  of  the  first  class.     A  Conductor  is  of  the  first  class  when  he  has  served  as  such  six 
months  or  over  and  a  Brakeman  is  of  the  first  class  when  he  has  served   as   such  three 
months  or  over.     Men  of  the  second  class  to  receive  $2.70  and  $1.80  per  'day,   respec- 
tively, or  27  cents  and  18  cents  per  hour,  respectively. 

19.  Trainmen  and  Yardmen  will  not  be  required  to  pay  fines  on  account  of  breakage.

work,  after  which  they  shall  receive  full  rate. 

ART.  2.  On  work  trains  twelve  hours  or  less  shall  constitute  a  day.  If 
mileage  exceeds  100  miles,  actual  mileage  will  be  allowed  at  work  train  rates.  Ten 
hours  or  less,  when  less  time  is  required  to  make  100  miles,  on  freight  trains,  will  consti- 
tute one  day.  On  all  runs  ranging  from  90  to  100  miles  a  full  day  will  be  allowed;  on  runs 
of  less  than  90  miles  a  full  day  will  be  allowed,  provided  no  other  mileage  is  made  the 
same  day;  if  other  mileage  is  made,  then  actual  mileage  will  be  allowed.  On  the  Chi- 
cago &  Milwaukee  division  once  over  the  road  will  constitute  a  day.  One  hundred  and 
fifty  miles  will  be  allowed  between  La  Crosse  and  Minneapolis.  On  branch  lines  where 
the  regular  run  is  less  than  100  miles,  overtime  will  be  allowed  when  more  than  10 
hours  are  consumed  in  making  the  run  and  doing  the  necessary  switching,  at  the  rates 
in  existence  prior  to  December  28,  1890. 

ART.  3.  Overtime  shall  be  computed  on  a  basis  of  10  miles  per  hour.  In  comput- 
ing overtime,  no  fraction  of  an  hour  less  than  30  minutes  shall  be  counted;  fractions 
of  an  hour  over  30  minutes  shall  be  counted  one  hour. 

ART.  4.  The  time  of  extra  trains  shall  be  computed  on  the  same  basis  as  schedule

trainmen  on  extra  freight  trains. 

ART.  5.  When  men  are  held  for  snow  plow  service  they  shall  be  paid  full  time.  In 
all  cases  where  men  are  working  in  the  snow  and  trying  to  open  the  road,  they  shall 
be  paid  hour  for  hour  ,  so  long  as  they  are  in  that  service,  at  through  freight  train 
rates.  When  men  are  away  from  home  over  one  day  at  a  time,  owing  to  snow  block- 


CHICAGO,  MILWAUKEE  &  ST.  PAUL  RAILWAY.  55

be  allowed.  When  attending  law  suits,  full  time  will  be  allowed  and  expenses  paid  for 
every  day  off. 

ART.  7.  When  trainmen  are  required  to  switch  at  terminal  stations  over  one  hour 
where  switch  engines  are  regularly  employed,  they  shall  receive  compensation  for 
such  service  at  road  rates,  viz.:  10  miles  per  hour,  no  allowance  to  be  made  for  less 
than  one  hour.  At  terminals  where  switch  engines  are  not  regularly  employed,  no 
time  will  be  allowed  for  switching,  unless  the  time  consumed  in  doing  the  necessary- 
switching  and  making  a  run  of  100  miles,  exceeds  10  hours.  All  time  in  excess  of  10 
hours,  in  such  cases,  will  be  paid  for  at  road  rates,  viz.:  10  miles  per  hour. 

ART.  8.  At  terminal  or  division  stations  where  callers  are  employed,  they  shall 
call  trainmen  as  near  as  practicable  one  hour  before  leaving  time  of  trains,  pro- 
vided they  live  within  one  mile  from  the  place  where  they  take  charge  of  trains.  The 
caller's  book  shall  state  the  leaving  time  of  trains  and  the  men  who  are  called  shallT 
in  each  instance,  register  their  names  together  with  the  time  at  which  they  are 
called.  In  computing  overtime,  time  of  men  shall  begin  at  time  specified  in  the  caller's 
book  for  the  train  to  leave. 

ART.  9.  In  cases  where  trains  are  abandoned,  trainmen  having  been  called,  they 
shall  be  paid  for  all  time  on  duty  until  released,  but  in  no  case  for  less  than  25  miles. 

ART.  10.  As  a  rule  freight  trainmen  shall  run  on  the  freight  division  to  which 
they  are  assigned.  Crews  not  assigned  to  regular  runs  shall  run  first  in,  first  out. 

ART.  11.  Freight  train  crews  called  to  make  a  single  run  over  their  respective 
freight  divisions  with  passenger  trains  or  passenger  equipment,  shall  receive  full 
freight  train  rates  therefor. 

ART.  12.  As  near  as  practicable  the  number  of  crews  in  freight  service,  on  all  divis- 
ions, shall  be  kept  down  to  correspond  with  the  volume  of  business,  so  that  they  may/ 
make  not  less  than  2,600  miles  per  month. 

ART.  13.  Promotions  will  be  based  upon  the  faithful  discharge  of  duties,  capacity 
for  increased  responsibility  and  fitness  for  the  position,  to  be  determined  by  the  Super- 
intendent. As  a  rule,  promotions  to  freight  Conductors  are  to  be  made  from  freight 
Brakemen  and  passenger  Conductors  from  freight  Conductors.  The  Company  at  all 
times  reserves  the  right  to  hire  experienced  men  outside  of  its  own  employes  or  to> 
transfer  men  from  one  division  to  another  whenever  the  business  of  the  Company  may 
require  it.  In  case  a  trainman  is  transferred  from  one  division  to  another,  the  same 
standing  on  the  first  division  shall  be  maintained  upon  his  return. 

ART.  14.  Actual  mileage  shall  be  allowed  for  doubling  hills,  provided  trains  are 
thereby  delayed  over  10  hours  in  making  a  run  of  100  miles.  No  allowance  will  be 
made  for  doubling  hills,  as  above,  on  runs  of  90  miles  or  less. 

ART.  15.  Train  crews  shall  not  be  required  to  repair  disabled  cars  left  at  stations* 
by  other  trains.  When  practicable  to  do  so,  without  detriment  to  the  Company's  busi- 
ness, carsmiths  shall  be  sent  to  make  necessary  repairs.  Cars  disabled  in  trains  shall 
be  repaired  or  chained  up  by  the  train  crew  and  taken  through  to  destination  or  divis- 
ion station,  when  possible  and  safe  to  do  so,  and  it  can  be  done  without  unreasonable 
delay  to  trains. 

Passenger  Train  Service:  ART.  16.  No  change  shall  be  made  in  compensation  of 
passenger  train  men.  They  shall  be  paid  at  the  same  rate  and  on  the  same  basis  as 
heretofore. 

General  Regulations:  ART.  17.  Conductors  shall  have  full  and  entire  control  of 
Brakemen  on  their  trains,  and  of  the  placing  of  them,  and  shall  not  be  required  to* 
take  out  a  Brakeman  whom  they  know  to  be  incompetent. 

ART.  18.  Trainmen  shall  rank  from  the  day  they  are  employed,  and  in  the  event 
of  a  surplus  of  men  the  oldest  in  the  service  on  the;r  respective  divisions  shall  have 
the  preference  of  employment;  character,  ability  and  merit  being  equal. 

ART.  39.  No  trainman  shall  be  suspended  or  discharged  without  just  cause.  In 
case  of  suspension  or  dismissal,  if  he  thinks  his  sentence  unjust,  his  case  shall  have  a 
thorough  investigation  by  the  proper  officers,  at  which  he  may  be  present  if  he  so  de- 
sires. Such  investigation  shall  be  made  as  soon  as  possible,  and  if  found  unjustly  sus- 
pended or  discharged  he  shall  be  reinstated  and  paid  full  time  while  so  out  of  service- 

ART.  20.  When  trainmen  have  been  in  continuous  service  so  long  as  to  require 
rest,  they  shall  not  be  required  to  go  out  until  sufficient  time  has  been  allowed  them  1  o> 
recuperate;  men  to  be  the  judges  of  their  own  physical  condition. 

ART.  21.  When  time  is  not  allowed  as  per  Conductor's  daily  time  slip,  it  shall  be 
returned  at  once  with  the  reason  for  not  allowing  the  time. 

ART.  22.  Any  trainman  suspended  or  dismissed  shall  have  the  privilege  of  appeal 
to  the  Superintendent.  If  he  fails  to  adjust  the  case,  appeal  can  then  be  made  to  the

regular  order. 

ART.  23.  All  subordinate  officers  and  Conductors  shall  be  provided  with  copies  of 
the  foregoing  schedule,  and  copies  shall  be  kept  at  all  terminal  and  division  stations, 
easily  accessible  to  trainmen. 

ART.  24.  All  schedules,  rules  and  regulations  in  conflict  with  these,  now  adopted, 
are  void.

RULES  RELATING  TO  CONDUCTORS. 

ARTICLE  1.  The  occupation  of  a  Conductor  is  one  that  requires  a  knowledge  of 
the  schedules  of  time  governing  the  road  on  which  he  is  employed,  as  well  as  those  is- 
sued by  connecting  lines;  a  proper  interpretation  of  the  rules  issued  therewith,  and 
under  which  trains,  both  passenger  and  freight,  are  operated.  This,  with  proper  ex- 
perience, good  judgment,  considerable  ability,  and  service  previously  rendered  by  the 
occupant  of  such  a  position  (in  the  railway  service),  together  with  the  required  char- 
acter and  ability  of  the  person  himself,  dignifies  such  occupation  as  a  distinct  pro- 
fession. 

ART.  2.  Persons  hereafter  appointed  Conductors  should  be  men  of  undoubted 
reputation,  good  morals,  temperate  habits,  and  with  an  experience  in  train  service  on 
any  line  of  road  of  not  less  than  three  years.  It  is  believed  that  the  Order  of  Railway 
Conductors  is  largely  composed  of  men  furnishing  the  necessary  qualifications,  and,  so 
far  as  it  can  be  done  consistently,  such  persons  should  have  preference  in  the  filling  of 
vacancies,  when  it  can  be  done  with  proper  regard  for  efficiency  in  the  service,  which 
necessitates  at  times  promotions  from  the  ranks. 

ART.  3.  Seniority  in  service  as  Conductor  shall  hereafter  govern  in  all  cases  of 
promotion  from  freight  to  passenger  runs,  merit  being  equal,  this  to  be  determined 
by  the  Superintendent,  subject  to  appeal  to  the  General  Superintendent,  it  being  un- 
derstood that  the  rule  to  be  generally  pursued  does  not  permit  of  transferring  an  em- 
ploye from  one  division  to  another,  to  the  detriment  of  division  employes.  The  future 
choice  of  runs  shall  be  based  upon  this  principle. 

ART.  4.  No  Conductor  shall  be  dismissed  or  suspended  from  the  service  of  the 
Company  without  just  cause.  In  case  a  Conductor  believes  his  discharge  or  suspension 
to  have  been  unjust,  he  shall  make  a  written  statement  of  the  facts  in  the  premises, 
and  submit  it  to  his  Superintendent,  and  at  the  same  time  designate  any  other  Con- 
ductor, who  may  be  in  the  employ  of  the  Company  at  the  time  on  the  same  division, 
and  the  Superintendent,  together  with  the  Conductor  last  referred  to,  shall,  in  con- 
junction with  the  General  Superintendent  or  some  other  superior  officer  agreed  upon 
by  them,  investigate  the  case  in  question,  and  when  at  all  practicable  such  investiga- 
tion shall  be  made  within  five  days  from  the  date  of  the  receipt  of  the  communication 
irom  the  Conductor,  and  in  case  the  aforesaid  discharge  or  suspension  be  decided  to 
liave  been  unjust,  he  shall  be  reinstated  and  paid  half  time  for  all  time  lost  on  said 
account. 

ART.  5.  When  Conductors  are  laid  off  on  account  of  dullness  in  business,  it  shall 
"be  done  in  the  order  of  the  dates  of  their  employment  as  Conductor,  beginning  with  the 
Conductor  last  employed. 

ART.  6.  Conductors  having  charge  of  trains  will  be  held  responsible  for  their  safe 
management,  and  shall  have  a  right  to  place  their  Brakemen  as  their  best  judgment 
may  dictate,  so  long  as  it  does  not  conflict  with  time-table  rules. 

ART.  7.  Time  of  Conductors  in  freight  and  passenger  service  shall  be  computed  on 
the  basis  of  100  miles  or  less  for  a  day's  work,  and  all  time  made  by  Conductors  while 
on  the  road  between  terminal  points  in  excess  of  10  miles  per  hour,  on  freight,  and 
eight  hours  per  100  miles,  on  passenger,  will  be  considered  overtime. 

ART.  8.  When  Conductors  are  held  in  for  snow  plow  service  they  will  be  allowed 
regular  pay  for  each  day  of  24  hours  that  they  are  so  held  subject  to  orders,  on  the 
basis  of  10  miles  per  hour. 

ART.  9.  When  good  cause  can  be  shown  for  doubling  hills,  the  pay  shall  be  on  the 
basis  of  the  actual  time  lost,  at  10  miles  per  hour,  and  all  time  spent  in  wrecking,  re- 
pairing washouts  or  bucking  snow,  shall  be  paid  for  on  same  basis.  Conductors  dead- 
heading on  Company's  business  will  be  paid  half  mileage. 

ART.  10.  Delayed  time  at  terminal  stations,  either  before  leaving  or  after  arriv- 
ing, will  be  paid  for  full  delay,  less  one  hour,  if  delayed  one  hour  and  35  minutes.  It  is 
understood  that  fractions  of  an  hour  less  than  35  minutes  will  not  be  counted.  Thirty- 
five  minutes  or  over  will  be  counted  a  full  hour.  In  freight  service,  50  miles  or  less 


CAICAGO,  ROCK  ISLAND  &  PACIFIC  RAILWAY.  -r>7 


shall  constitute  50  miles,  or  one-half  day's  pay.  One  hundred  miles,  or  over  50  miles, 
shall  constitute  100  miles,  or  one  day's  pay. 

ART.  11.  A  caller  shall  be  provided  at  the  end  of  each  main  division,  who  shall 
have  a  register  book'  and  have  written  therein  the  train  the  men  are  called  for,  the 
time  of  calling  and  their  names.  The  pay  of  the  Conductor  shall  begin  from  the  time 
the  train  is  ordered  for,  as  shown  on  the  order  for  calling,  and  shall  continue  to  the 
time  of  arrival  at  the  end  of  the  run.  When  Conductors  are  required  to  switch  at 
terminals  35  minutes  or  more,  time  shall  be  allowed. 

ART.  12.  Conductors  called  to  make  a  trip  shall  be  paid,  provided  the  train  is 
afterward  annulled,  for  three  hours  time,  on  the  basis  of  the  of  the  pay  they  are  re- 
ceiving. 

ART.  13.  The  following  rates  of  pay  will  be  allowed  passenger  and  freight  Con- 
ductors, both  east  and  west  of  the  Missouri  river:  Freight  Conductors,  local,  3  cents 
per  mile,  overtime,  30  cents  per  hour;  through,  2.9  cents  per  mile,  overtime,  29  cents 
per  hour.  Passsenger  Conductors,  through  express  runs,  $125  per  month,  on  a  basis  of 
from  4,000  to  6,510  miles  per  month;  main  line,  local  and  dummy  runs,  $100  per  month,  on 
a  basis  of  from  2,600  to  4,000  miles  per  month;  short  and  branch  trains,  passenger  or 
mixed,  $75  per  month,  on  a  basis  of  2,600  miles  or  less  per  month.  Work  train  Conduc- 
tors, 12  hours  and  over  eight,  one  day;  $90  per  month;  overtime,  30  cents  per  hour. 
Conductors  of  passenger  trains  must  make  during  a  month  the  minimum  mileage  es- 
tablished, else  they  will  drop  back  to  the  pay  established  for  Conductors  making  an 
equal  mileage.  Extra  mileage  over  the  maximums  here  established  for  passenger 
Conductors  will  be  paid  for  at  proportionate  rates.  When  practicable  there  shall  be 
no  greater  number  of  through  freight  crews  employed  on  any  division  than  can  reas- 
onably be  expected  to  make  3,000  miles  per  month  east  of  the  Missouri  river,  or  2,600 
miles,  west  of  the  Missouri  river. 

ART.  14.  Promotions  and  preferment  will  be  based  upon  merit  and  the  general 
record  of  the  men,  and  not  entirely  upon  their  ages  or  duration  of  service;  economy  in 
the  running  of  his  train,  and  care  for  the  Company's  property  while  under  his  control, 
will  always  be  considered  as  meriting  reward. 

The  articles  enumerated  above  constitute,  in  their  entirety,  the  agreement  be- 
tween this  Company  and  its  Conductors,  and  all  rules  previously  in  effect  are  by  this 
agreement  abolished.  

The  following  constructions  are  agreed  to: 

ART.  3.  Passenger  Conductors  should  be  promoted  from  freight  Conductors,  gov- 
erned by  seniority  in  Company's  service,  if  they  are  in  all  ways  qualified  to  handle  and 
care  for  the  traveling  public.  If  not  so  qualified  the  reason  shall  be  made  known  to 
them  by  their  Superintendent. 

ART.  4.  It  is  not  only  expected,  but  desired  on  the  part  of  the  Company,  that  the 
Conductor  who  seeks  a  reinvestigation  shall  be  present  at  such  reinvestigation,  to- 
gether with  his  representative  and  Division  Superintendent  or  other  designated  officer. 

In  cases  where  road  engines  and  crews  are  sent  from  a  division  station  to  a  given 
point  on  the  road  to  do  switching  service  for  a  quarter  to  one-half  day  or  more,  in 
place  of  the  switch  engine  and  crew,  actual  mileage  should  be  allowed  for  as  per  Ar- 
ticle 10,  and  switching  time  allowed  for  actual  time  consumed  in  switching  on  the 
basis  of  10  miles  per  hour.  However,  where  only  the  ordinary  switching  is  done  at  any 
station  by  the  road  crew,  the  overtime  rule  on  the  basis  of  10  miles  per  hour  between 
termini  should  govern. 

In  the  case  of  Conductor  Donahue,  train  99,  Rock  Island  to  West  Liberty,  Article 
10  covers  this  point  and  allows  but  100  miles,  or  50  miles  on  the  trip  from  Rock  Island 
to  West  Liberty  and  50  miles  from  West  Liberty  to  Rock  Island.  However,  in  case 
overtime  rule  mentioned  is  accepted,  overtime  begins  after  having  been  out  from  Rock 
Island  10  hours,  unless  the  crew  is  relieved  at  West  Liberty  by  order  of  the  Superin- 
tendent or  Trainmaster. 

ART.  11.  A  caller  should  be  provided  at  Trenton  and  Brooklyn,  with  a  register 
book  showing  the  train  men  are  called  for,  the  time  they  are  ordered  to  leave,  and  the 
time  of  calling,  followed  by  Conductor's  signature;  and  the  pay  of  the  Conductor  so 
called  should  begin  from  the  time  the  train  is  due  to  or  ordered  to  leave.  Local  freight 
trains  are  such  trains  as  handle  merchandise  peddling  freight.  Regular  passenger 
Conductors  called  or  required  to  do  extra  running,  or  sent  in  runs  outside  of  their  reg- 
ular runs,  should  be  allowed  extra  time  at  the  regular  rate  as  allowed  the  extra  runs 
which  they  are  required  to  make.  Passenger  Conductors  laying  off,  not  having  made 
the  required  maximum  mileage  for  the  month,  will  lose  such  time. 

On  trains  7  and  8  between  Washington  and  Chicago  if  over  4,000  miles  are  made  in 
any  month  the  extra  time  should  be  allowed  at  proportionate  rates. 

In  the  two  cases  cited  by  Mr  Glaspell,  first  case  leaving  Trenton  at  7:25  A.  M.,  ar- 
riving at  St.  Joe  at  12:45  P.  M.,  leaving  St.  Joe  at  6  P.  M.  to  go  to  Horton,  actual  mile- 
age, or  123  miles  for  that  day  should  be  allowed;  on  the  other  hand,  in  the  second  case 


58  CHICAGO,  ROCK  ISLAND  &  PACIEIC  RAILWAY. 


leaving  Trenton  at  11  A.  M.,  arriving  at  St.  Joe  at  5  P.  M.,  leaving  St.  Joe  at  2  A.  M.  for 
Horton.  100  miles  should  be  allowed  Trenton  to  St.  Joe  for  first  days  work,  provided  no 
other  mileage  is  made,  and  50  miles  should  be  allowed  for  the  second  day's  work,  for 
the  run  from  St.  Joe  to  Horton,  provided  no  other  mileage  is  made  on  that  day.  In 
other  words,  the  time  is  computed  by  the  day  or  by  trains  starting  from  different  ter- 
mini during  the  hours  between  midnight  and  midnight. 

In  the  case  of  Conductor  Bledsoe,  who  claims  to  have  been  delayed  two  hours  after 
time  ordered  to  leave  Brooklyn,  one  hour  overtime  should  be  allowed,  although,  in  the 
case  cited  on  June  10,  when  he  claimed  one  hour  overtime  on  account  of  being  on  the 
road  11  hours  and  40  minutes,  schedule  has  not  provided  for  such  overtime. 

ART.  13.  In  the  matter  of  branch  runs,  passenger  or  mixed,  all  mileage  over  2,600 
miles  per  month  will  be  extra,  and  at  proportionate  rate  of  pay.  Branch  crews  mak- 
ing extra  trips  on  main  line  will  be  entitled  to  actual  mileage  so  made  at  the  rate  gov- 
erning such  service.  Extra  trips  made  on  the  branch,  as  also  switching  necessary  to 
be  done  at  terminal  yards,  when  performed  within  the  schedule  hours  of  the  day's  ser- 
vice, are  not  entitled  to  extra  pay,  but  when  performed  outside  of  such  schedule  hours, 
are  entitled  to  extra  pay  at  proportionate  rates,  for  branch  service. 


RULES  RELATING  TO  BRAKEMEN. 

The  articles  enumerated  below  constitute,  in  their  entirety,  the  agreement  between 
this  Company  and  its  freight  and  passenger  Brakemen,  and  all  rules  previously  in 
effect  are  by  this  agreement  abolished. 

.  ARTICLE  1.  Seniority  in  service  as  Brakemen  shall  hereafter  govern  in  all  cases 
of  promotion  from  Brakeman  to  Conductor,  merit  being  equal.  This  to  be  determined 
by  the  Trainmaster,  subject  to  an  appeal  to  the  Division  Superintendent,  it  being  un- 
derstood that  the  rule  to  be  generally  pursued  does  not  permit  of  transferring  an  em- 
ploye from  one  division  to  another  to  the  detriment  of  the  division  employe.  The 
future  choice  of  runs  shall  be  based  upon  this  principle. 

ART.  2.  No  Brakeman  shall  be  dismissed  or  suspended  from  the  service  of  the 
Company  without  just  cause.  In  case  a  Brakeman  believes  his  discharge  or  suspension 
to  have  been  unjust,  he  shall  make  written  statement  of  the  facts  in  the  premises  and 
submit  it  to  the  Trainmaster,  and  at  the  same  time  designate  any  other  Brakeman 
who  may  be  in  the  employ  of  the  Company  at  the  time  on  the  same  division,  and  the 
Trainmaster,  together  with  the  Brakeman  last  referred  to  shall,  in  conjunction  with 
the  Division  Superintendent,  or  some  other  superior  officer,  investigate  the  case  in 
question,  and  when  at  all  practicable,  such  investigation  shall  be  made  within  five  days 
from  the  date  of  the  receipt  of  the  communication  from  the  Brakeman,  and  in  case 
the  aforesaid  discharge  or  suspension  is  decided  to  have  been  unjust,  he  shall  be  rein- 
stated, and  paid  half  time  for  all  time  lost  on  said  account. 

ART.  3.  When  necessary  to  lay  off  Brakemen  on  account  of  surplus  of  crews,  it 
shall  be  done  in  the  order  of  the  dates  of  their  employment  as  Brakemen,  beginning 
with  the  Brakeman  last  employed. 

ART.  4.  When  Brakemen  are  held  in  for  snow-plow  service,  they  will  be  allowed 
the  regular  rates  they  are  receiving  for  each  day  of  twenty-four  hours  that  they 
are  so  held  subject  to  orders,  and  on  the  basis  of  ten  hours  and  ten  miles  per  hour. 
When  Brakemen  are  required  by  the  Company  to  attend  court,  they  shall  be  paid  at 
the  rate  they  are  receiving,  and  on  the  basis  of  ten  hours  at  ten  miles  per  hour,  and 
expenses,  for  each  day  of  twenty-four  hours  during  such  attendance,  and  for  act- 
ual time  consumed  in  going  to  and  coming  from  court. 

ART.  5.  When  good  cause  can  be  shown  for  doubling  hills,  the  pay  shall  be  on  the 
basis  of  actual  time  lost,  at  ten  miles  per  hour,  and  all  time  spent  in  wrecking,  repair- 
ing washouts  or  bucking  snow,  shall  be  paid  for  on  same  basis.  Brakemen  dead-head- 
ing on  Company's  business  will  be  paid  one-half  mileage. 

ART.  6.  Delayed  time  at  terminal  stations,  either  before  leaving  or  after  arriving, 
will  be  paid  for  full  delay  less  one  hour  if  delayed  one  hour  and  thirty-five  minutes:  It 
is  understood  that  fractions  of  an  hour  less  than  thirty- five  minutes  will  not  be  count- 
ed. Thirty-five  minutes  or  over  will  be  counted  a  full  hour.  In  freight  service  fifty 
miles  or  less  shall  constitute  fifty  miles  or  one-half  day's  pay.  One  hundred  miles  or 
over  fifty  miles,  shal'  constitute  one  hundred  miles  or  one  day's  pay. 

ART.  7.  A  Caller  shall  be  provided  at  the  end  of  each  main  division,  who  shall  have 
a  registered  book  and  have  written  therein  the  train  the  men  are  called  for,  the  time 
of  calling  and  their  names.  As  near  as  practicable  the  men  shall  be  called  one  hour 
before  leaving  time.  The  pay  of  the  Brakemen  shall  begin  from  the  time  the  train  is 
ordered  for,  as  shown  on  the  order  for  calling,  and  shall  continue  to  the  time  of  arrival 
at  the  end  of  the  run.  When  Brakemen  are  required  to  switch  at  terminals  thirty- five 
minutes  or  more,  time  shall  be  allowed. 

ART.  8.  Brakemen  called  to  make  a  trip  shall  be  paid,  provided  the  train  is  after- 
wards annulled,  for  three  hours'  time,  on  the  basis  of  the  pay  they  are  receiving. 


CHICAGO,  ROCK  ISLAND  &  PACIFIC  RAILWAY.  59* 


ART.  9.  Fines  shall  not  be  assessed  against  Brakemen  for  injury  to  any  of  the 
train  appliances  furnished  by  the  Company,  when  it  can  be  shown  that  they  were  in  no 
wise  at  fault  in  connection  therewith. 

ART.  10.  The  following  rates  of  pay  will  be  allowed  passenger  and  freight  Brake- 
men,  both  east  and  west  of  the  Missouri  river: 

Freight  Brakemen:  Local,  2  cents  per  mile:  overtime,  20  cents  per  hour.  Through, 
1.93  cents  per  mile;  overtime,  19  cents  per  hour. 

Passenger  Brakemen:  Through  express  runs,  $55.00  per  month,  basis  of  4,000  to  6,510 
miles  per  month.  Main  line,  local  and  dummy  runs,  $50.00  per  month,  basis  of  2,600  to 
4,000  miles  per  month.  Short  and  branch  trains,  passenger  or  mixed,  $40.00  per  month,

month.  Overtime  at  proportionate  rates. 

Brakemen  of  passenger  trains  must  make  during  a  month  the  minimum  of  mileage 
established,  else  they  will  drop  back  to  the  pay  established  for  Brakemen  making  an 
equal  mileage.  Extra  mileage  over  the  maximums  here  established  for  passenger 
Brakemen  will  be  paid  for  at  proportionate  rates. 

RULES  RELATING  TO  ENGINEERS. 

ARTICLE  1.  Engineers  dead-heading  on  Company's  business  will  be  paid  half  mile- 
age. When  required  by  this  Company  to  attend  court,  they  shall  be  paid  at  the  rate 
of  $3.70  per  day  of  twenty-four  hours,  and  their  expenses  during  attendance,  and  for 
all  time  lost  while  waiting  the  Company's  orders,  and  for  such  time  as  they  may  lose 
while  waiting  to  take  their  runs,  and  for  all  services  not  otherwise  provided  for  in 
this  schedule. 

ART.  2.  When  Engineers  are  held  in  for  snow  plow  service,  they  will  be  allowed 
regular  pay  for  each  day  of  24  hours  that  they  are  so  held  subject  to  orders.  In  case  a 
regular  Engineer's  engine  is  assigned,  in  reserve,  to  snow  plow  service,  the  Engineer 
shall  be  provided  with  another  engine.  When  good  cause  can  be  shown  for  doubling 
hills,  the  pay  shall  be  on  the  basis  of  the  actual  time  lost.  Freight  Engineers  double- 
heading  on  passenger  trains  will  receive  passenger  Engineers'  pay  for  the  same. 

ART.  3.  Engineers  shall  not  be  required  to  perform  the  duties  of  conductors,  ex- 
cept in  emergencies;  and  in  case  of  running  light  engines,  a  Flagman  shall,  when 
practicable,  be  sent  with  them. 

ART.  4.  Engineers  shall  not  be  required  to  pack  driving  cellars,  engine  or  tender 
trucks,  valve-stems,  or  pistons,  where  facilities  exist  for  such  service  by  shop  force. 

ART.  5.  No  Engineer  shall  be  required  to  continue  on  duty  when  he  reasonably 
needs  rest,  but  in  extreme  cases  the  Engineers  on  their  part  will  tender  every  means 
in  their  power  to  assist  the  Company. 

ART.  6.  Seniority  in  the  Company's  service,  as  locomotive  Engineers,  shall  govern 
in  all  cases,  merit  being  equal;  this  to  be  determined  by  the  Assistant  Superintendent 
of  Motive  Power  and  Equipment  or  the  Division  Master  Mechanic,  subject  to  appeal 
to  the  Superintendent  of  Motive  Power  and  Equipment,  and  the  choice  of  runs  and 
engines  shall  be  based  upon  this  principle,  it  being  understood  that  the  choice  of 
engines  shall  not  apply  to  engines  of  the  same  class.  When  a  deficiency  of  Engineers 
in  road  service  exists,  Engineers  in  yard  service  will  be  considered  in  the  line  of  pro- 
motion to  road  service  Engineers.  When  an  Engineer's  engine  assigned  to  regular 
runs  is  held  in  for  repairs,  the  Engineer  shall  be  permitted  to  keep  up  his  mileage  by 
taking  his  run  in  turn  on  the  engines  assigned,  to  these  runs.  Engineers  on  runs  that 
pay  $105.00  or  less  per  month  shall  be  furnished  with  engines  to  keep  up  runs.  In  case 
of  a  surplus  of  Engineers,  the  younger  in  the  service  shall  be  taken  off  and  shall  do 
extra  work,  or  firing.  A  surplus  shall  not  be  considered  as  existing  while  Freight 
Engineers  are  making  2,600  miles  per  month. 

ART.  7.  No  Engineer  shall  be  dismissed  or  suspended  from  the  service  of  the  Co  n- 
pany  without  just  cause,  and  should  the  Engineer  be  unable  to  plead  his  own  case  at 
the  investigation  (which  shall  be  heard  within  five  days  from  the  date  of  such  suspen- 
sion or  dismissal,  if  possible  for  the  Superintendent  to  be  present  during  that  period, 
and  if  not,  at  such  early  date  as  he  may  decide  upon,  when  all  interested  can  be  pres- 
ent, and  which  shall  be  held  before  the  Superintendent  or  Assistant  Superintendent 
and  the  Assistant  Superintendent  of  Motive  Power  and  Equipment,  or  the  Division 
Master  Mechanic,  when  both  departments  are  interested),  he  shall  be  permitted  to 
call  upon  some  other  Engineer  in  the  service  of  the  Company,  and  on  the  same  division, 
who  shall  be  permitted  to  plead  his  case  for  him;  and  in  case  an  Engineer  believes  his 
discharge  or  suspension  unjust,  he  shall  make  written  statement  of  the  facts  in  the 
premises,  within  ten  days  from  the  date  of  such  suspension,  or  dismissal,  and  submit  it 
to  the  Assistant  Superintendent  of  Motive  Power  and  Equipment  or  the  Division  Mas- 
ter Mechanic,  and  the  Superintendent,  in  conjunction  with  the  Assistant  Superintend- 
ent of  Motive  Power  and  Equipment,  or  the  Division  Master  Mechanic,  together  with 
the  Engineer  dismissed,  or  suspended,  or  his  representative,  shall  investigate  the  case 


60  CHICAGO.  ROCK  ISLAND  &  PACIFIC  RAILWAY. 

in  question,  and  if  their  decision  is  not  satisfactory,  such  Engineer  shall  have  the  right 
of  further  appeal  to  the  next  higher  officer  in  rank,  and  from  him  in  proper  order  to 
the  General  Manager;  and  when  at  all  practicable  such  investigation  shall  be  made 
within  five  days  of  the  date  of  the  receipt  of  the  communication  from  the  Engineer; 
and  in  case  the  aforesaid  discharge  or  suspension  is  decided  to  have  been  unjust,  he 
shall  be  reinstated  and  paid  half  time  for  all  the  time  lost.  Any  grievance  that  may 
arise  on  the  part  of  Engineers  shall  be  presented  in  writing  to  the  proper  officer  of  the 
Company  by  the  party  aggrieved  within  sixty  days  of  its  occurrence.  No  attention 
shall  be  paid  to  grievances  unless  presented  in  writing  within  the  time  specified  above. 

ART.  8.  Time  of  Engineers  in  freight  and  passenger  service  shall  be  computed  on 
the  basis  of  one  hundred  miles  or  less  for  a  day's  work;  and  all  time  made  by  Engineers 
while  on  the  road  between  terminal  points,  in  excess  of  ten  miles  per  hour  on  freight, 
and  eight  hours  per  hundred  miles  on  passenger,  will  be  considered  overtime. 

ART.  9.  Delayed  time  at  terminal  stations  before  leaving  will  be  paid  for  full  de- 
lay if  delayed  one  hour;  if  delayed  thirty  minutes  at  terminal  stations  after  arriving, 
one  hour's  time  will  be  allowed.  In  computing  delayed  time  before  leaving,  it  is  under- 
stood that  one  full  hour  must  be  consumed  before  time  will  be  allowed.  If  one  hour 
and  thirty  minutes,  two  hours'  time  will  be  allowed,  and  so  on.  After  arriving  at  ter- 
minal station  one  hour  will  be  allowed  after  thirty  minutes'  delay,  two  hours  after  one 
hour  and  thirty  minutes'  delay,  and  so  on.  All  construction  service  performed  by  road 
Engineers  not  regularly  assigned  to  construction,  at  terminal  points,  will  be  paid  for 
at  the  regular  rates.  If  more  than  five  hours  are  consumed  in  this  service,  the  Engi- 
neer will  not  be  considered  first  out  in  any  class  of  service  except  construction.  Road 
Engineers  required  to  do  construction  work  between  terminals  will  be  paid  actual 
mileage  for  miles  run  on  freight  or  passenger,  and  construction  pay  for  such  construc- 
tion service  at  the  established  rate  for  fractions  of  a  day  on  construction. 

ART.  10.  A  Caller  shall  be  furnished  at  the  end  of  each  main  division,  who  shall 
have  a  register  book,  and  have  written  therein  the  train  and  time  the  men  are  called 
for,  the  time  of  calling,  and  their  names,  which  shall  be  signed  by  the  Engineer  when 
called.  Engineers  called  to  make  a  trip  shall  be  paid  for  three  hours'  time  on  the 
basis  of  the  regular  rates  which  they  are  receiving,  provided  the  train  is  afterwards 
annulled  and  Engineer  released,  and  shall  occupy  the  same  position  they  did  before 
being  ordered  out.  The  time  of  the  Engineer  shall  begin  from  the  time  the  train  is 
ordered  for,  as  shown  on  the  order  for  calling,  and  shall  continue  to  the  time  he  gives 
up  his  engine  to  the  hostler  at  the  end  of  the  run.  When  road  Engineers  are  required 
to  switch  at  terminals  thirty-five  minutes  or  more,  time  shall  be  allowed. 

ART.  11.  When  not  otherwise  required  by  the  Company's  necessities,  all  freight 
Engineers  shall  run  first  in  and  first  out  (except  those  assigned  to  regular  runs)  from 
all  terminals  and  relay  stations  on  their  respective  districts.  All  Engineers  running 
on  the  extra  list  shall  register  on  their  arrival,  in  a  book  provided  for  that  purpose, 
and  be  called  in  rotation  when  the  services  of  an  extra  man  may  be  required,  and  shall 
remain  with  engine  called  for  until  the  regular  Engineer  returns. 

ART.  12.  Engineers  will  have  rights  on  their  respective  divisions  as  they  are  now 
divided. 

ART.  13.     There  shall  be  one  Engineer  hired  for  each  Fireman  promoted. 

ART.  14  The  following  rates  of  pay  will  be  allowed  to  Engineers  for  the  service 
and  class  specified: 

Freight  and  Construction  Service:  First  class,  4  cents;  second  class,  3|  cents;  third 
class,  3  cents.  The  term  of  service  between  the  classes  to  be  nine  months  each. 

Passenger  Service:    All  runs,  3i  cents. 

Switching  Service:    $2.70  per  day. 

In  switching  service  ten  working  hours  shall  constitute  a  day's  work.  Five  hours 
or  less,  half  a  day;  over  five  hours,  full  day.  In  construction  service  twelve  working 
hours  or  less  shall  constitute  a  day's  work. 

ART.  15.  Overtime  will  be  allowed  on  switching  at  the  rate  of  27  cents  per  hour, 
and  in  all  other  service  at  the  rate  of  37  cents  per  hour,  irrespective  of  classification. 

ART.  16.     No  fines  shall  be  assessed  against  Engineers. 

Promotions  and  preferments  will  be  based  upon  merit  and  the  general  record  of 
the  men,  and  not  entirely  upon  their  ages  or  duration  of  service.  Evidence  of  the  will- 
ingness of  an  Engineer  to  serve  the  best  interests  of  the  Company  at  all  times,  in  what- 
ever capacity  assigned,  as  well  as  economy  in  the  running  of  his  engine,  and  care  for 
the  Company's  property  while  under  his  control,  will  always  be  considered  as  meriting 
reward.  The  articles  enumerated  above  constitute,  in  their  entirety,  the  agreement 
between  this  Company  and  its  locomotive  Engineers,  and  all  rules  previously  in  effect 
are  by  this  agreement  abolished. 

RULES  RELATING  TO  FIREMEN. 

ART.  1.  No  Fireman  shall  be  dismissed  or  suspended  from  the  service  of  the  Com- 
pany without  just  cause.  In  case  a  Fireman  believes  his  discharge  or  suspension  to 


CHICAGO,  ROCK  ISLAND  &  PACIFIC  RAILWAY.  61 

have  been  unjust,  he  shall  make  a  written  statement  of  the  facts  in  the  premises  and 
submit  it  to  his  Master  Mechanic;  and  at  the  same  time  designate  any  other  Fireman 
who  may  be  in  the  employ  of  the  Company  at  the  time  on  the  same  division,  and  the 
Master  Mechanic,  together  with  the  Fireman  last  referred  to,  shall,  in  conjunction 
with  the  Superintendent  or  some  other  superior  officer,  investigate  the  case  in  ques- 
tion, and  when  at  all  practicable  such  investigation  shall  be  made  within  five  days 
from  the  date  of  the  receipt  of  the  communication  from  the  Fireman,  and  in  case  the 
aforesaid  discharge  or  suspension  is  decided  to  have  been  unjust,  he  shall  be  reinstated 
and  paid  half  time  for  all  the  time  lost  on  said  account.  The  right  of  appeal  in  proper 
order  from  local  to  general  officers  is  always  conceded  and  to  all  organizations. 

ART.  2.  When  not  otherwise  required  by  the  Company's  necessities,  all  freight 
Firemen  shall  run  first  in  and  first  out  (except  those  assigned  to  regular  runs),  from  all 
terminals  and  relay  stations  on  their  respective  districts.  All  Firemen  running  on  the 
extra  list  shall  register  on  their  arrival,  in  a  book  provided  for  that  purpose,  and  be 
called  in  rotation  when  the  services  of  an  extra  man  may  be  required,  and  shall  re- 
main with  engine  called  for  until  the  regular  Fireman  returns. 

ART.  3.  Firemen  called  to  make  a  trip  shall  be  paid,  provided  the  train  is  after- 
wards annulled,  for  three  hours'  time,  on  the  basis  of  the  regular  rates  which  they  are 
receiving,  and  shall  stand  first  out  as  per  Article  2. 

ART.  4.  Firemen  will  have  rights  on  their  respective  divisions  as  they  are  now 
divided. 

ART.  5.  Firemen  shall  not  be  required  to  clean  fires,  ash  pans,  or  front  ends  of 
their  engines  at  terminals  of  their  respective  runs,  or  at  points  where  there  is  a  round 
house,  providing  that  the  runs  of  the  engine  to  be  cleaned  cover  a  mileage  of  not  less 
than  150  miles. 

ART.  6.  No  Fireman  shall  be  required  to  continue  on  duty  when  he  reasonably 
needs  rest,  but  in  extreme  cases  the  Firemen  on  their  part  shall  tender  every  means 
in  their  power  to  assist  the  Company. 

ART.  7.  Coal  for  engines  on  through  express  or  fast  passenger  trains  shall  be  bro- 
ken suitable  for  furnace  use,  and  for  other  passenger  or  freight  trains  shall  be  broken 
so  that  no  lump  shall  exceed  eight  inches  in  length  or  thickness  before  delivery  on 
engine  tank. 

ART.  8.  The  rights  and  preferences  to  runs,  engines  and  promotions  shall  be  gov- 
erned by  seniority,  merit  being  equal;  this  to  be  determined  by  the  Master  Mechanic 
(subject  to  appeal  to  the  General  Master  Mechanic),  and  the  choice  of  runs  and 
engines  shall  be  based  upon  this  principle,  it  being  understood  that  the  choice  of  en- 
gines shall  not  apply  to  engines  of  the  same  class.  The  same  rule  will  apply  to  Fire- 
men in  yard  service.  When  consistent  to  do  so,  and  a  deficiency  of  Firemen  in  road 
service  exists,  Firemen  in  yard  service  will  be  considered  in  the  line  of  promotion  to 
road  service  Firemen.  When  a  Fireman's  engine  goes  in  the  shop  for  general  repairs, 
the  Fireman  will  be  considered  an  extra  man,  and  assigned  to  such  service  as  the  Mas- 
ter Mechanic  may  determine.  In  case  of  a  surplus  of  Firemen,  the  younger  in  the 
service  shall  be  taken  off  and  shall  do  extra  work,  or  firing.  A  surplus  shall  not  be 
considered  as  existing  while  Firemen  are  making  2,600  miles  per  month. 

ART.  9.  All  charges  or  reports  made  against  Firemen  shall  be  made  in  writing, 
and  such  charges  shall  be  subject  to  the  inspection  of  the  party  against  whom  they 
are  made. 

ART.  10.  Time  of  Firemen  in  freight  and  passenger  service  shall  be  computed  on 
the  basis  of  100  miles  or  less  for  a  day's  work;  and  all  time  made  by  Firemen  while  on 
the  road  between  terminal  points,  in  excess  of  ten  miles  per  hour  on  freight,  and  eight 
hours  per  100  miles  on  passenger,  will  be  considered  overtime. 

ART.  11.  When  Firemen  are  held  in  for  snow  plow  service,  they  will  be  allowed 
regular  pay  for  each  day  of  twenty-four  hours  that  they  are  so  held  subject  to  orders. 
Wnen  good  cause  can  be  shown  for  doubling  hills,  the  pay  shall  be  on  the  basis  of  the 
actual  time  lost.  Freight  Firemen,  double-heading  on  passenger  trains,  will  receive 
passenger  Firemen's  pay  for  the  same. 

ART.  12.  Firemen  dead-heading  on  Company's  business  will  be  paid  half  mileage, 
and  when  required  by  this  Company  to  attend  court,  they  shall  be  paid  at  the  rate  they 
are  receiving  and  expenses,  during  attendance,  and  for  actual  time  consumed  in  going 
to  and  coming  from  court. 

ART.  13.  Delayed  time  at  terminal  stations,  either  before  leaving  or  after  arriv- 
ing, will  be  paid  for  full  delay  less  one  hour,  if  delayed  one  hour  and  thirty-five  min- 
utes. It  is  understood  that  fractions  of  an  hour  less  than  thirty-five  minutes  will  not 
be  counted.  Thirty-five  minutes  or  over  will  be  counted  a  full  hour.  It  is  further  un- 
derstood that  the  Company  will  furnish  blank  forms  for  engineers  to  fill  out  for  all 
delayed  time  between  terminals  and  at  terminals  before  departing  and  after  arriving, 
which  shall  be  verified  by  the  train  sheet  and  certified  to  by  the  Division  Superin- 
tendent. 

ART.  14.    A  Caller  shall  be  provided  at  the  end  of  each  main  division,  who  shall 


62          CHOCTAW  COAL  &  R'Y.  CO. — CINCINNATI,  NEW  ORLEANS  &  TEXAS  PACIFIC  R'Y. 

have  a  register  book,  and  have  written  therein  the  train  the  men  are  called  for,  the 
time  of  calling,  and  their  names.  The  pay  of  the  Firemen  shall  begin  from  the  time 
the  train  is  ordered  for,  as  shown  on  the  order  for  calling,  and  shall  continue  to  the  time 
he  gives  up  his  engine  to  the  hostler  at  the  end  of  the  run.  When  road  engines  are 
required  to  switch  at  terminals  thirty-five  minutes  or  more,  time  shall  be  allowed  the 
Fireman. 

ART.  15.  Firemen  on  standard  8-wheel  locomotives  will  receive  two  and  twenty- 
five  hundredths  (2  25-100)  cents  per  mile;  on  6- wheel  locomotives  and  local  runs  will 
receive  two  and  forty  hundredths  (2  40-100)  cents  per  mile.  Firemen  of  construction 
trains  shall  receive  100  miles  per  day  as  per  schedule,  and  Firemen  of  switch  engines 
shall  receive  one  dollar  and  seventy-five  cents  ($1.75)  per  day,  it  being  understood  that 
in  switching  service  ten  working  hours  shall  constitute  a  day's  work.  Five  hours  or 
less,  half  day;  over  five  hours,  full  day.  In  construction  service  twelve  working  hours 
or  less  shall  constitute  a  day's  work.  Firemen  on  suburban  trains  between  Chicago 
and  Blue  Island  shall  receive  twenty  (20)  cents  per  hour  while  on  duty. 

ART.  16.  Overtime  will  be  allowed  on  switching  at  the  rate  of  seventeen  and  one- 
half  (17  50-100)  cents  per  hour,  and  in  all  other  service  at  the  rate  of  twenty-two  and 
one-half  (22  50-100)  cents  per  hour,  irrespective  of  classification. 

ART.  17.  Evidence  of  the  willingness  of  a  Fireman  to  serve  the  best  interests  of 
the  Company  at  all  times,  in  whatever  capacity  assigned,  as  well  as  economy  and 
cleanliness  in  the  care  of  his  engine,  and  the  Company's  property  under  his  control, 
will  always  be  considered  as  meriting  reward.  The  articles  enumerated  above  consti- 
tute, in  their  entirety,  the  agreement  between  this  Company  and  its  locomotive  Fire- 
men, and  all  rules  previously  in  effect  are  by  this  agreement  abolished.

Conductors  receive  $100  per  month ;  Brakemen,  $60  per  month ;  Baggageman,  $30 
per  month  —  I  believe  he  receives  the  same  amount  from  the  Express  Company.  We

1.  Overtime  will  be  allowed  trainmen  when  the  schedule  time  of  the  train  has 
been  exceeded  two  hours  or  more.  When  schedule  time  has  been  exceeded  two  hours 
or  more,  the  first  two  hours  will  be  included ;  after  the  schedule  has  been  exceeded 
two  hours  or  more,  all  fractional  parts  of  an  hour  over  thirty  minutes  will  be  counted 
a  full  hour;  fractional  parts  of  an  hour  less  than  thirty  minutes  will  not  be  counted. 
Crews  of  work  trains  will  be  allowed  overtime  for  all  time  on  duty  in  excess  of  twelve 
hours  per  day.  Fractional  parts  of  an  hour  of  more  than  thirty  minutes  will  be  counted 
as  a  full  hour,  fractional  parts  of  less  than  thirty  will  not  be  counted.  Time  of  extra 
trains  will  be  computed  from  longest  schedule  time  of  trains  of  same  class  on  current 
time  table.  On  all  trains  delayed  time  will  be  paid  for  at  the  rate  of  30  cents  per 
hour  for  conductors,  and  18  cents  per  hour  for  trainmen.  Yard  delayed  time  at  termi- 
nals will  be  allowed  after  the  train  has  been  delayed  in  the  yard  thirty  minutes  or 
more,  and  when  delayed  immediately  outside  of  the  yard-limit  board,  at  the  rate  of  30 
cents  per  hour  for  conductors  and  18  cents  per  hour  for  brakemen  for  each  hour  or 
fractional  part  of  an  hour  in  excess  of  thirty  minutes.

2.  In  case  a  trainman  believes  his  suspension  or  discharge  to  have  been  unjust,  he 
shall,  within  thirty  days  after  such  suspension  or  discharge,  make  a  written  statement 
of  the  facts  in  the  case  and  submit  it  through  the  Trainmaster  to  the  Superintendent 
of  the  division  on  which  he  is  employed  and  the  latter  will,  as  soon  as  practicable, 
make  a  thorough  investigation  of  the  matter ;   if  such  statement  be  not  submitted 
within  thirty  days  it  will  not  be  considered.     If  the  suspension  or  discharge  be  found 
to  have  been  unjust,  the  trainman  will  be  reinstated  and  will  be  paid  for  time  lost. 
Employes  will  have  right  of  appeal  to  the  General  Manager. 

3.  Trainmen  will  be  called  not  to  exceed  one  hour  before  the  leaving  time  of  their 
trains.     The  time  of  trainmen  will  begin  one  hour  after  they  have  signed  the  C  iller's 
book.     The  Caller  will  be  furnished  with  a  book  showing  the  time  the  men  are  called 
and  the  time  the  train  leaves,  which  book  will  be  signed  by  the  men.     Failing  to  re- 
spond promptly,  whether  it  be  his  turn  out  or  not,  the  party  at  fault  will  be  suspended 
or  discharged  at  the  discretion  of  the  Trainmaster  or  Superintendent.     When  train- 
men are  called  to  go  out  and  the  train  is  afterward  annulled,  they  shall  be  allowed 
three  hours  at  the  rate  of  30  cents  per  hour  for  conductors,  and  18  cents  per  hour  for 
brakemen,  provided  that  they  are  not  notified  that  they  will  be  required  for  another 
train  within  the  three  hours,  in  which  event  their  time  will  begin  one  hour  from  the 
time  they  are  first  called.     Trainmen  thus  called  will  be  first  out,  provided  it  does  not 
interfere  with  the  men  who  have  regular  runs. 

4.  Crews  assigned  to  regular  runs  will  be  paid  extra  for  services  rendered  outside 
of  their  regular  runs  at  regular  rates  for  class  of  service  performed. 

5.  For   attending   court  or  appearing  before  proper  persons  to  give  evidence, 
trainmen  having  regular  runs  will  be  paid  the  amount  they  would  have  made  had  they 
performed  their  regular  duties.     Other  trainmen  will  be  paid  regular  day's  wages  for 
the  service  to  which  they  belong.     They  will  also  be  furnished  free  transportation  to 
and  from  court  and  their  legitimate  expenses.     No  time  will  be  allowed  in  cases  where 
the  time  so  consumed  does  not  interfere  with  the  men  making  their  regular  trips  and 
having  eight  hours'  rest  if  they  require  it. 

6.  Trainmen  dead-heading  under  orders  will  be  allowed  half  pay  for  the  service  to 
which  they  belong.     Crews  running  light  with  cabooses  or  engine  without  caboose  will 
be  allowed  through  freight  pay. 

7.  When  a  man  is  traveling  over  the  road  for  the  purpose  of  relieving  a  man  who 
has  asked  for  leave  of  absence,  he  will  not  receive  any  compensation  for  the  distance 
traveled. 

8.  Trainmen  ot  wrecking  trains  will  be  paid  35  cents  per  hour  or  fraction  thereof 
in  excess  of  thirty  minutes  for  Conductors,  and  20  cents  per  hour  or  fraction  thereof  in 
excess  of  thirty  minutes  for  Brakemen,  time  to  be  computed  from  time  train  starts  or 
one  hour  after  the  men  are  called  until  they  are  relieved  from  wrecking  duty.    In  case 
the  train  is  laid  up  in  order  to  give  the  men  necessary  time  to  rest  and  sleep,  such  por- 
tion of  time  will  be  deducted  from  the  whole  and  only  the  actual  time  on  duty  will  be 
paid  for.     A  minimum  of  six  hours  will  be  allowed,  but  no  mileage  paid. 

9.  When  time  is  not  allowed  as  per  time  slip,  trainmen  will  be  advised  of  the 
amount  allowed. 

10.  Trainmen  on  special  train  or  pay  train  shall  be  paid  the  same  wages  as  passen- 
ger trainmen. 

11.  After  continuous  service  for  sixteen  hours,  trainmen  will  be  allowed  eight 
hours  rest  before  being  called  to  go  out,  if  they  so  desire  and  give  notice  thereof,  ex- 
cept in  case  of  wrecks,  washouts  and  other  emergencies. 

12.  When  freight  traffic  is  so  light  that  all  the  freight  crews  in  the  service  are 
not  able  to  make  reasonable  wages,  crews  will  be  laid  off,  beginning  with  the  youngest 
men  in  the  service,  until  the  crews  that  remain  can  make  reasonable  wages.     Train- 
men suspended  from  service  under  this  rule  will  be  given  preference  when  the  business 
of  the  road  is  better. 

13.  Crews  will  not  be  required  to  run  off  their  respective  divisions  except  when,  in 
the  opinion  of  the  officers,  the  emergencies  of  the  service  require  it. 

In  addition  to  the  above  I  beg  to  advise  : 

1.  The  two  back-up  runs  out  of  Oakdale  will  be  allowed  local  pay  for  the  division 
on  which  they  are  made.     Any  through  freight  crews  required  to  do  the  work  of  these 
back-up  trains  will  receive  this  local  pay. 

2.  Three  crews  on  the  local  runs  between  Chattanooga  and  Springville,  Vicksburg 
and  Meridian,  and  Hattiesburg  and  New  Orleans.     The  rates  of  pay  in  connection  with 
these  three  local  runs  will  be  $90  per  month  for  Conductors,  and  $52  per  montk  for 
Brakemen. 

3.  The  day  Yardmasters  at  Lexington,  Somerset  and  Oakdale  will  be  allowed  $100 
per  month.     The  night  Yardmasters  at  Lexington,  Somerset,  Oakdale  and  Chattanooga 
will  be  allowed  $85  per  month. 

4.  Conductors  on  trains  11  and  12,  of  the  V.  S.  &  P.  R.  R.,  will  be  allowed  $3.25  per 
trip  for  either  division.     One  white  man,  as  Flagman,  on  those  trains  will  be  allowed  $2

SECOND   AND   THIRD  DIVISIONS  —  REGULATIONS. 

1.  Trainmen  will  be  allowed  one  day's  pay  for  short  runs  not  scheduled ;  provided 
10  other  work  is  furnished  on  the  same  day.     If  other  work  is  furnished,  the  short  run 

l  be  figured  pro  rata  of  district  rates  and  time. 

2.  Callers  will  be  stationed  at  all  freight  terminals,  who  will  call  trainmen  for 
service  when  needed.     These  Callers  will  be  provided  with  a  book  giving  the  names  of 
:he  crews  and  the  number  or  kind  of  train  for  which  they  are  wanted,  in  which  book 
trainmen  must  sign  their  names  and  enter  the  time  of  the  call.     Time  will  be  allowed 
crews  from  the  time  they  are  called  to  leave  until  arrival  at  end  of  run.     District  ter- 
minals are  the  only  ones  to  be  considered  terminals. 

3.  In  case  trainmen  are  called  and  report  for  duty  and  their  services  are  not  re- 
quired (for  any  cause  not  their  own  fault),  they  shall  stand  first  out  and  shall  be  paid 
ior  one-half  day's  service. 

4.  Freight  trainmen  while  on  special  or  passenger  service  will  be  paid  at  the  same 
rate  as  they  would  have  made  on  their  regular  runs ;  provided  time  made  on  passenger 
or  special  train  amounts  to  less  than  that  of  the  regular  freight  run. 

5.  In  case  of  the  suspension  or  dismissal  of  any  trainman  or  yardman,  for  any 
:ause  except  drunkenness,  he  shall  have  the  right  to  refer  his  case  by  written  state- 
ment to  the  Division  Superintendent  within  five  days  from  the  time  he  was  taken  off. 
Fhe  Superintendent  shall  give  his  case  a  thorough  investigation,  at  which  the  ag- 
grieved employe  shall  be  present  if  he  so  desires,  and  also  be  represented  by  a  disinter- 
ested employe  in  his  class  from  his  division,  whom  he  may  select.     In  case  he  shall  not 
)e  satisfied  with  the  result  of  the  investigation,  he  shall  have  the  right  to  appeal  to 
;he  General  Superintendent  or  General  Manager.     In  case  suspension  or  dismissal  is 
found  to  be  unjust,  he  shall  be  re-instated  and  paid  for  all  time  lost.     In  case  of  suspen- 
sion, the  time  shall  date  from  the  time  he  was  taken  off  for  investigation. 

6.  Trainmen  are  to  report  time  and  overtime  on  the  regular  form,  and  in  case 
;ime  sent  in  is  not  allowed,  slips  will  be  returned  for  correction,  stating  the  reason  why 
yver  the  Superintendent's  signature. 

7.  Trainmen  will  not  be  required  to  go  out  when  they  claim  to  need  rest,  or  are 
ncapacitated  by  sickness,  but  are  required  to  give  timely  notice  to  the  proper  official 
n  order  that  their  places  may  be  filled.     In  cases  of  washouts,  wrecks  and  other  emer- 
gencies, it  is  not  intended  that  tins  clause  shall  be  used  to  avoid  extra  exertion. 

8.  In  making  promotions,  Superintendents  and  others  will  consider  seniority  of 
service,  and,  everything  else  being  equal,  those  longest  in  the  service  shall  have  the 
^reference.     When  a  reduction  of  force  becomes  necessary,  those  retained  shall  be  of 
;he  longest  in  the  service;  i.  e.,  as  between  those  equally  honest,  sober  and  capable, 
Hit  seniority^  is  not  to  be  made  a  covering  for  shortcomings  of  any  kind,  or  to  prevent 
the  Company  from  securing  the  best  possible  service.     In  filling  vacancies  in  the  ranks 
3f  freight  Conductors,  for  every  three  men  promoted  from  the  ranks,  one  Conductor 
may  be  hired  as  Conductor,  or  promoted  from  the  ranks  regardless  of  age  in  the  service. 
Fhe  Conductor  so  employed  to  take  his  place  at  the  foot  of  the  list  of  extra  Conduct- 
ors, and  may  be  temporarily  used  as  extra  Brakeman  when  not  employed  as  Conductor. 
Nothing  in  this  article  shall  be  construed  to  refer  to  work-train  Conductors. 

9.  When  traffic  becomes  so  light  that  train  crews  in  service  do  not  make  full  time, 
upon  petition  of  a  majority  of  the  Conductors  on  that  district,  crews  will  be  taken  off, 
:ommencing  with  the  youngest. 

10.  In  case  Conductors  are  needed  for  mixed  runs  by  reason  of  regular  Conductor 
ay  ing  off,  the  oldest  freight  Conductor  available  may  take  the  run,  and  the  oldest  ex- 
;ra  Conductor  available  may  take  the  freight  run. 

11.  Train  crews  dead-heading  under  orders  will  be  paid   full  time.     Individual 
trainmen  dead-heading  on  passenger  trains  under  orders  will  be  paid  one-half  time. 

12.  Roadmen  will  retain  no  rights  in  yard  service,  and  vice  versa,  except  in  case 
of  Mr.  Hawthorne,  present  Yardmaster  at  Salida. 

13.  No  departure  from  the  provisions  of  this  agreement  will  be  made  by  any  party

RULES  RELATING  TO  CONDUCTORS. 

1.  The  occupation  of  a  Conductor  is  one  that  requires  a  knowledge  of  the  sched- 
ules of  time  governing  the  road  on  which  he  is  employed,  as  well  as  those  issued  by 
connecting  lines ;    a  proper  interpretation  of  the  rules  issued  therewith  and  under 
which  trains,  both  passenger  and  freight,  are  operated. 

2.  Persons  hereafter  appointed  Conductors  should  be  men  of  undoubted  reputa- 
tion, good  morals,  temperate  habits,  and  with  an  experience  in  train  service  on  any 
line  of  road  of  not  less  than  three  years. 

3.  Seniority  in  service  as  Conductor  shall  hereafter  govern  in  all  cases  of  promo- 
tion from  freight  to  passenger  runs,  merit  being  equal,  this  to  be  determined  by  the 
Trainmaster;  it  being  understood  that  the  rule  generally  to  be  pursued  does  not  per- 
mit of  transferring  an  employe  from  one  division  to  another,  to  the  detriment  of  the 
division  employes.     The  future  choice  of  runs  shall  be  based  upon  this  principle. 

4.  No  Conductor  shall  be  dismissed  nor  suspended  from  the  service  of  the  Company 
without  just  cause.     In  case  a  Conductor  believes  his  discharge  or  suspension  to  have 
been  unjust,  he  shall  make  a  written  statement  of  the  facts  in  the  premises  and  sub- 
mit it  to  the  Trainmaster  ;    and  at  the  same  time  designate  any  other  Conductor  who 
may  be  in  the  employ  of  the  Company  at  the  same  time  on  the  same  division  ;  the  Su- 
perintendent, together  with  the  Conductor  last  referred  to,  shall  investigate  the  case 
in  question,  and  when  at  all   practicable  such  investigation  shall  be  made  within  five 
days  from  the  date  of  the  receipt  of  the  communication  from  the  Conductor.     In  case 
the  aforesaid  discharge  or  suspension  be  decided  to  have  been  unjust,  he  shall  be  rein- 
stated and  paid  half  time  for  all  time  lost  on  said  account. 

5.  When  Conductors  are  laid  off,  on  account  of  dullness  of  business,  it  shall  be

done  in  the  order  of  tne  dates  of  their  employment  as  Conductor,  beginning  with  the 
Conductor  last  employed. 

6.  Conductors  having  charge  of  trains  will  be  held  responsible  for  their  safe  man- 
agement, and  shall  have  a  right  to  place  their  Brakemen  as  their  best  judgment  may 
dictate  so  long  as  it  does  not  conflict  with  time-table  rules. 

7.  Time  of  Conductors  in  freight  and  passenger  service  shall  be  computed  on  the 
basis  of  100  miles  or  less  for  a  day's  work  ;   and  all  time  made  by  Conductors  while  on 
the  road  between  terminal  points,  in  excess  of  ten  miles  per  hour  on  freight  and  eight 
hours  per  100  miles  on  passenger  will  be  considered  overtime. 

8.  When  Conductors  are  held  in  for  snow  plow  service,  they  will  be  allowed  regular 
pay  for  each  day  of  twenty-four  hours  that  they  are  so  held  subject  to  orders. 

9.  Conductors  dead-heading  on  Company's  business,  will  be  paid  half  mileage ;  and 
when  required  by  this  Company  to  attend  court  they  shall  be  paid  at  the  rate  of  $3  per 
day  of  twenty-four  hours,  and  their  expenses  during  attendance.     The  time  to  be 
counted  while  awaiting  the  Company's  orders  until  they  have  an  opportunity  to  take 
a  run. 

10.  Delayed  time  between  terminal  stations  will  be  paid  for  full  delay  less  one 
hour,  if  delayed  one  hour  and  thirty-five  minutes.     It  is  understood  that  fractions  of

der for  calling,  and  shall  continue  to  the  time  of  arrival  at  the  end  of  the  run.     When

ment abolished.

Trainmaster,  subject  to  an  appeal  to  the  Superintendent.     It  being  understood  that 
the  rule  generally  to  be  pursued  does  not  permit  of  transferring  an  employe  from  one

been  unjust,  he  shall  make  a  written  statement  of  the  facts  in  the  pre  T  ises  and  submit 
it  to  the  Trainmaster,  and  at  the  same  time  designate  any  other  Brakeman  who  may 
be  in  the  employ  of  the  Company  at  the  time,  on  the  same  division,  and  the  Trainmaster, 
together  with  the  Brakeman  last  referred  to,  shall,  in  conjunction  with  the  Superin- 
tendent, investigate  the  case  in  question,  and  when  at  all  practicable  such  investiga- 
tion shall  be  made  within  five  days  from  the  date  of  the  receipt  of  the  communication 
from  the  Brakeman.     In  case  the  aforesaid  discharge  or  suspension  is  decided  to  have 
been  unjust,  he  shall  be  reinstated  and  paid  half  time  for  all  time  lost  on  said  account. 

3.  When  necessary  to  lay  off  Brakemen,  on  account  of  surplus  of  crews,  it  shall

an  hour  less  than  thirty-five  minutes  will  not  be  counted.     Thirty-five  minutes  or  over 
will  be  counted  a  full  hour.     In  freight  service  fifty  miles  or  less  shall  constitute  fifty 
miles,  or  one-half  day's  pay ;  100  miles  or  over  fifty  miles  shall  constitute  100  miles,  or 
one  day's  pay. 

7.  The  rules  in  regard  to  a  Caller  shall  remain  the  same  as  heretofore.     The  piy

tion  to  their  regular  compensation.

selves reliable,  competent  men.     Experienced  Conductors  and  Brakemen  employed 
from  other  roads  will  receive  full  rates  of  pay. 

14.  The  actual  number  of  days  in  any  calendar  month,  of  twelve  hours  per  day, 
exclusive  of  Sundays,  will  constitute  a  month's  work  for  that  month  in  local  or  mixed

after  thirteen  hours' continuous  service.     On  local  freight  turn-around  trips,  where 
the  time  consumed  on  the  road  and  in  switching  at  turn-around  points  exceeds  twelve 
hours.     In  work  train  service,  after  twelve  hours  on  duty.     In  computing  overtime  any 
fraction  of  an  hour,  thirty  minutes  or  less,  will  not  be  counted;  over  thirty  minutes 
vvill  be  called  an  hour. 

16.  In  local  freight  service  there  shall  be  three  crews  with  three  Brakemen  on 
each  crew  assigned  to  each  main' line  district  between  Chicago  and  New  Orleans,  Chi-x 
cago  and  Sioux  City,  Centralia  and  Amboy  ;  also  between  Springfield  and  Oilman.     On 
the  Water  Valley  district,  during  the  months  of  light  bubine«s,  the  number  of  crews 
may  be  reduced  to  two.     On  local  freight  runs  not  specified  the  Division  Superintendent 
will  arrange  the  assignment  of  men  and  crews  as  is  consistent  with  the  requirements 
of  the  service  and  business. 

17.  When  a  crew  is  called  ft  r  a  freight  trip  of  50  miles  or  less,  50  miles  will  be  al- 
lowed ;   and  where  over  six  hours  are  consumed  in  a  run,  100  miles  will  be  allowed. 
When  called  for  a  freight  trip  of  over  50  miles  and  less  than  100  miles,  100  miles  will  be 
allowed  ;  and  when  more  than  100  miles,  actual  mileage  will  govern.     Overtime  on  such 
trips  will  be  allowed  when  the  time  consumed  on  the  road  and  in  switching  at  turn- 
around points  is  in  excess  of  six  hours  on  a  run  where  50  miles  is  allowed,  and  twelve 
hours  on  a  run  where  100  miles  is  allowed.     Districts  90  miles  or  over,  and  less  than  100 
miles,  will  be  allowed  100  miles  for  each  single  trip  over  the  district.     Districts  less 
than  90  miles  will  be  allowed  100  miles  unless  doubled  on  the  same  date,  in  which  case 
actual  mileage  will  be  allowed.     This  rule  not  to  interfere  with  the  present  allowance 
of  mileage  between  Amboy  and  Freeport.     Crews  required  to  double  between  Mendota 
and  Sublette  will  be  allowed  20  miles  extra  for  each  double.

Overtime  on  the  above  turn-around  trips  will  be  allowed  for  all  time  used  on  the 
round  trip  in  excess  of  ten  miles  per  hour,  less  four  hours  at  Kankakee,  Otto,  DuQuoin, 
Martin  and  Pana,  and  two  hours  at  other  turning-  points.  Time  to  be  reckoned  from 
starting  point  to  time  of  arrival  back  at  starting  point.  An  exception  will  be  made 
in  case  of  the  turn- around  trip  from  Centralia  to  DuQuoin  and  return,  where  only  two 
hours  will  be  deducted  in  computing  time.  When  Chicago  district  crews  are  held  over 
at  Oilman  to  exceed  fifteen  hours,  except  Sunda}7,  time  in  excess  of  fifteen  hours  will 
be  paid  for  at  the  rate  of  ten  miles  per  hour. 

20.  For  light  runs,  engine  and  caboose,  full  mileage  will  be  allowed. 

21.  Crews  dead-heading  under  orders  on   passenger  trains  will  be  paid  one  half

22.  It  is  the  intention  to  run  crews  not  assigned  to  regular  runs,  first  in,  first  out, 
but  the  right  is  reserved  to  depart  from  this  rule  when  the  interests  of  the  Company 
require  it. 

23.  On  the  main  line  and  Memphis  and  Springfield  divisions  trainmen  not  on  regu- 
larly assigned  runs,  and  living  within  one  mile  of  the  yard,  will  be  called  as  nearly  as 
practicable  one  hour  before  the  leaving  time  of  their  train.     Men  on  regularly  assigned 
runs  will  be  called  between  the  hours  of  7  P.  M.  and  7  A.  M.     The  working  time  of  train- 
men will  begin  at  the  time  set  for  the  departure  of  their  train,  except  when  crews 
assigned  to  regular  runs  are  notified  at  least  one  hour  before  the  leaving  time  of  their 
train  of  the  time  at  which  they  are  required  to  report  for  duty. 

24.  Where  time  is  not  allowed  as  per  Conductor's  time  slip  it  shall  be  returned  to 
him  at  once,  with  reasons  for  not  allowing  same. 

25.  Conductors  and  Brakemen  will  not  be  dismissed  nor  suspended  from  the  Com- 
pany's service  without  just  cause.     In  case  of  suspension  or  dismissal  if  the  employe 
thinks  his  sentence  unjust,  he  shall  have  the  right  within  ten  days  to  refer  his  case,  by 
written  statement,  to  the  Division  Superintendent.     Within  ten  days  from  the  receipt 
of  this  notice  his  case  shall  have  a  thorough  investigation  by  the  Division  Superin- 
tendent, at  which  he  shall  be  present.    In  case  he  shall  not  be  satisfied  with  the  result 
of  said  investigation,  he  shall  have  the  right  to  appeal  to  the  General  Superintendent 
and  to  the  General  Manager.    In  case  the  suspension  or  dismissal  is  found  to  be  unjust, 
he  shall  be  reinstated  and  paid  for  time  lost. 

26.  When  freight  crews  are  called  and  report  for  duty,  and  for  any  cause  the 
train  is  abandoned,  they  shall  be  paid  at  overtime  rates  for  each  hour  so  held  on  duty 
and  will  stand  first  out. 

27.  Trainmen  attending  court  at  the  request  of  the  Company,  if  on  assigned  runs, 
shall  be  allowed  full  time,  and  when  in  irregular  service,  100  miles  per  day,  until  or- 
dered to  resume  work  in  the  department  in  which  they  are  employed,  with  the  neces- 
sary expenses  while  away  from  home,  same  not  to  exceed  $2  per  day. 

28.  Trainmen  will  be  allowed  eight  hours'  rest  after  sixteen  hours'  continuous 
service,  unless  they  go  out  voluntarily. 

29.  The  right  to  regular  runs  and  to  promotion  will  be  governed  by  merit,  ability 
and  t-eniority.     Everything  being  equal,  the  men   longest  in  continuous  service  will 
have   preference,  the  Division  Superintendent  to  be  the  judge  as  to  qualifications. 
Nothing  in  this  article  shall  be  construed  as  preventing  the  Company  from  employing 
experienced  men  from  other  roads,  when  the  good  of  the  service  requires  it. 

30.  In  event  of  there  being  a  surplus  of  crews  and  it   becomes  necessary  to  reduce 
their  number,  the  oldest  men  shall  have  preference  in  employment  except  where,  in 
the  judgment  of  the  Division  Superintendent,  for  good  reasons  which  will  be  made

known  upon  application,  younger  men  in  the  service  are  considered  more  reliable  and 
efficient ;  it  being  the  intention  to  retain  the  most  capable  men  in  the  service.  Con- 
ductors retired  by  reason  of  a  reduction  of  crews  shall  have  preference  in  employment 
as  Brakemen. 

31.  So  far  as  consistent  with  the  interests  of  the  Company  the  number  of  crews 
will  be  kept  down  to  correspond  with  the  business,  so  that  crews  in  irregular  freight 
service  may  make  3,000  miles  per  month. 

32.  It  is  hereby  understood  to  be  the  duty  of  Conductors  to  promptly  file  charges, 
in  writing,  to  their  superior  officer,  against  any  unreliable  or  unsafe  Brakeman  who 
may  have  been  assigned  to  them  ;  and,  in  the  interest  of  retaining  in  the  service  the 
best  men,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  such  superior  officer  to  promptly  investigate,  and  if 
the  charges  preferred  are  found  correct,  such  Brakeman  is  not  to  be  transferred  to 
another  crew,  but  promptly  dismissed. 

33.  Any  grievance  which  may  exist  and  is  not  rectified  shall  be  presented,  in  writ- 
ing, to  the  Division  Superintendent  within  thirty  days  of  its  occurrence,  to  the  end 
that  proper  action  toward  its  abatement  may  be  taken  without  unnecessary  delay. 

34.  All  schedules,  rules  and  regulations  in  conflict  with  these  now  adopted  are 
void. 

35.  No  portion  of  this  agreement  will  be  violated  nor  abrogated  by  any  party 
thereto  without  written  notice  of  such  intention  being  served  on  all  parties  hereto,  at 
least  fifteen  days  before  any  action  will  be  taken.  A.  W.  SULLIVAN,

rhere,  in  the  judgment  of  the  Division  Superintendent,  for  good  reasons  which  will  be 
lade  known  on  application,  younger  men  in  the  service  are  considered  more  reliable 
nd  efficient ;  it  being  the  intention  to  retain  the  most  capable  men  in  the  service.

i-hen  practicable  ;  provided  that  no  Conductor  or  Brakeman  thus  placed  shall  be  re- 
Leved  to  make  place  for  an  older  man  until  the  regular  man  resumes  work  or  the  po- 
ition  is  given  permanently  to  the  oldest  extra  Conductor  or  Brakeman.

1  writing,  to  their  superior  officer,  against  any  unreliable  or  unsafe  Brakeman  who 
nay  have  been  assigned  to  them  ;  and,  in  the  interest  of  retaining  in  the  service  the 
>est  men,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  such  superior  officer  to  promptly  investigate,  and  if 
he  charges  preferred  are. found  correct,  such  Brakeman  shall  be  assigned  to  other 
ervice  or  discharged,  as  the  merits  of  the  case  may  demand.

he  time  first  called  to  go. 

13.  Conductors  will  be  held  responsible  for  the  safe  management  of  their  trains, 
ind  will  place  their  Brakemen  as  their  best  judgment  shall  dictate,  so  long  as  it  does 
aot  conflict  with  time-card  rules. 

14.  When  Conductors  make  proper  objections  in  writing  to  the  Trainmaster  or 
Division  Superintendent  against  any  Brakeman  under  their  charge,  such  Brakeman 

hall  be  assigned  to  other  duties  or  dismissed  from  the  service,  as  circumstances  may 
justify  or  warrant.

17.  When  the  freight  traffic  is  light  and  the  crews  in  service  are  not  able  to  make 
reasonable  time,  crews  will  be  taken  off,  beginning  with  the  youngest,  until  the  crews 

t  in  the  service  are  enabled  to  make  reasonable  time.  Conductors  temporarily  sus- 
pended under  this  rule  will  be  given  preference  as  Brakemen  over  younger  men  in  the 
service,  and  will  retain  their  rights  as  Conductors. 

18.  No  fines  will  be  imposed  on  trainmen  for  loss  of  tools  or  for  damage  to  rolling

DC  the  judge.      Everything  being  equal,  the  Conductors  and  Brakemen  longest  in  the 
service  will  have  preference.     In  filling  vacancies  in  the  ranks  of  freight  Conductors, 
:or  every  two  Brakemen  promoted  from  the  ranks  that  are  oldest  in  the  service,  one 
Conductor  will  be  promoted,  it  being  understood  that  two  Brakemen  will  be  promoted

23.  The  basis  of  mileage  in  clause  1  is  subject  to  revision  if  shown  that  improve-

pared with  men  on  other  divisions  working  an  equal  number  of  hours.     The  mileage  on 
Saginaw  division  to  be  further  reduced  if,  after  a  reasonable  trial,  the  mileage  is

compared  with  other  divisions.

|heir  regular  section.

30.  Crews  will  not  be  run  off  their  respective  divisions  except  in  cases  of  necessity. 

31.  It  is  the  rule  and  intention  of  the  Company  to  run  through  freight  crews  first 
in  first  out,  but  circumstances  may  arise  where  this  should  be  changed,  and  the  Com- 
pany reserves  the  right  to  do  so.     For  instance  we  may  deem  it  advisable  to  run  cer- 
tain crews  upon  certain  designated  trains,  and  we  must  be  at  liberty  to  arrange  such 
matters  for  the  best  interests  of  the  Company. 

32.  Any  employe  included  under  the  provision  of  these  rules  who  is  dissatisfied 
with  the  decision  of  any  official  of  the  Company  shall  have  the  right  to  appeal  there- 
from to  the  General  Manager,  after  having  first  submitted  his  case  to  the  decision  of 
the  General  Superintendent. 

33.  When  freight  traffic  is  light  so  that  the  crews  in  service  are  not  able  to  make 
reasonable  time,  crews  will  be  taken  off,  beginning  with  the  youngest,  until  the  crews 
left  in  the  service  are  enabled  to  make  reasonable  wages.     Conductors  temporarily 
suspended  under  this  rule  will  be  given  preference  as  Brakemen  over  younger  men  in 
the  service  and  will  retain  their  rights  as  Conductors. 

34.  Trainmen  and  Yardmen  leaving  the  service  of  the  Company  of  their  own 
accord,  or  if  discharged  from  the  service,  shall  forfeit  all  rights  previously  held,  unless 
reinstated  within  ninety  days.

ngineer  be  permitted  to  run  on  the  road  when  his  physical  ability  has  been  fairly 

xed  by  previous  service,  before  he  has  had  the  needed  rest. 

23.  Engineers  will  be  required  to  conform  strictly  to  the  schedule  speed  of  trains 
ey  are  running,  except  when  they  receive  orders  to  exceed  the  speed  provided  for  in 
e  schedule.     Engineers  are  expected  to  report  to  the  Trainmaster  or  Superintendent 
len  schedule  speed  is  exceeded  on  down  grades,  by  reason  of  Conductors  and  Brake- 
en  failing  to  properly  apply  brakes  when  Engineers  give  the  signal  for  that  purpose, 
ood  judgment  is  at  all  times  expected  from  Engineers  in  passing  over  the  summits,  to 
ive  their  trains  well  in  hand  and  under  control.     When  this  is  the  case  and  prompt 
port  is  made  of  the  failure  of  brakes  being  applied  when  called  for,  Engineers  will 
t  then  be  held  responsible  for  excessive  speed  resulting  from  this  cause. 

24.  Engineers  will  not  be  suspended  or  discharged  except  for  just  cause,  and  when 
spended,  will  be  given  a  hearing  in  five  days  and  will  be  notified  of  the  result  of  the 
vestigation.     When  an  Engineer  is  suspended  from  duty,  and  on  investigation  it  is. 
und  that  he  was  not  to  blame  for  the  act  for  which  he  was  suspended,  he  will  be  paid 

per  day  of  twenty-four  hours  for  all  time  he  has  lost  by  reason  of  such  suspension, 
it  he  shall  have  no  claim  for  compensation  for  time  he  was  suspended  if  it  is  found! 
was  to  blame  for  the  act  for  which  he  was  suspended.  When  an  Engineer  is  called 
for  investigation,  who  is  charged  with  wrong  or  fault,  if  he  sees  proper  to  invite  any 
her  Engineer  to  go  in  with  him  to  hear  the  investigation,  the  management  have  m> 
jection  to  his  doing  so. 

25.  Engineers  when  going  over  the  road  for  an  engine  or  returning  after  deliver- 
g  one  under  orders,  will  be  paid  two  cents  per  mile. 

26.  The  Caller  will  call  all  Engineers  at  the  place  they  designate,  if  within  one 
lie  of  the  round  house.     If  he  lives  outside  of  the  limits  herein  prescribed,  he  must 
ake  his  own  arrangements  to  ascertain  whether  he  is  wanted  or  not.     When  Engineer 
called  to  go  out,  he  shall  sign  Caller's  book  giving  the  exact  time  at  which  he  was- 
tiled.     Tim£  will  commence  from  one  hour  after  the  Engineer  is  called,  and  will  be 
icertained  from  train  reports  and  checked  by  Engineer's  trip  reports.     If  the  train  is* 
mndoned,  they  will  be  paid  thirty-five  cents  per  hour  from  the  time  they  go  on  duty 
itil  they  are  relieved. 

27.  If  any  Engineer  or  other  employe  is  dissatisfied  with  the  decision  of  the  divi- 
officers,  he  has  the  right  of  appeal  to  the  General  Superintendent  or  to  the  Super-

appeal  to  the  General  Manager. 

28.  It  is  hereby  agreed  and  understood  that  this  agreement  shall  remain  in  fu 
force  and  effect  from  the  first  day  of  January,  1891,  to  the  first  day  of  January,  189 
unless  it  is  mutually  agreed  by  both  the  contracting  parties  hereto  to  abandon  th 
agreement,  and  that  written  notice  of  sixty  days  shall  be  given  by  either  party  aft

All  officers  or  the  Mobile  &  Ohio  Railroad  Company  will  see  that  this  agreement 
carried  out  in  good  iaith  on  the  part  of  the  Company,  and  this  committee  acting  f 
the  Engineers  on  the  Mobile  &  Ohio  Railroad  agree  on  their  part  to  carry  out  th 
agreement  in  good  faith  for  them.  It  is  distinctly  understood  that  when  this  agre 
ment  goes  into  effect  that  if  a  wrong  or  injury  has  been  done  to  any  one  or  more  pe 
sons  affected  by  this  agreement,  the  management  is  ready  at  all  times  to  take  up  an

Conductor  to  have  seven  different  Brakemen  within  a  period  of  three  months,  at  re- 
quest of  either  Conductor  or  Brakeman,  or  both,  it  will  be  considered  that  fault  lies 
with  the  Conductor  and  will  be  sufficient  cause  for  his  dismissal  at  the  discretion  of 
the  Superintendent.     When  objections  have  been  made  to  any  Brakeman  by  three  dif- 
ferent Conductors  within  a  period  of  three  months,  or  when  a  Brakeman  has  com- 
plained of  three  Conductors  within  the  same  period,  it  will  be  considered  that  the 
Brakeman  is  at  fault,  and  will  be  sufficient  cause  for  his  dismissal,  at  the  discretion  of 
the  Superintendent. 

2.  When  a  Brakeman  is  examined  for  promotion  to  Conductor  and  fails  to  pass 
such  examination,  and  considers  that  he  is  uni airly  dealt  with,  the  subordinate  officer

tail the  points  wherein  the  candidate  has  failed.     In  such  case  the  candidate  shall  be 
entitled  to  a  second  examination  to  be  conducted  by  the  Superintendent  personally, 
and  may  select  a  Conductor  or  Engineer  as  witness  to  such  examination. 

3.  Brakemen  who  are  candidates  for  promotion  to  the  position  of  Conductor  shall 
be  tested  and  examined  in  accordance  with  General  Superintendent's  Circular  No.  248, 
dated  November  11,  1891.

tionable, or  on  a  work  train,  they  shall  be  entitled  to  a  change  of  service,  provided 
there  are  younger  men  in  the  service  who  are  competent  to  perform  the  duties  required. 

6.  Switchmen  will  stand  in  line  of  promotion  from  Helper  to  Foreman,  and  from 
Foreman  to  Assistant  Yardmaster  or  night  Yardmaster,  according  to  their  age  in  con- 
tinuous service,  character  and  ability.     The  question  of  ability  and  adaptation  for  the 
position  of  Yardmaster  to  be  determined  by  the  Superintendent.     In  the  matter  of 
promotion  to  the  position  of  Yardmaster  a  division  shall  be  considered  as  a  whole  and 
not  each  yard  separately.  NORTHERN  PACIFIC  R.  R.  CO.,

service.  In  filling-  vacancies  in  the  ranks  of  Conductors  all  trainmen  will  be  consid- 
ered in  the  line  of  promotion,  according  to  their  age  in  the  service  and  their  ability.

( d.)    When  trainmen  are  required  to  remain  on  duty  over  thirty  minutes  with  their 
trains  on  arrival  at  main  line  terminals,  overtime  will  be  allowed  in  full  as  per  above,  • 
if  all  delays,  both  on  run  and  at  terminals,  exceed  two  hours.     If  two  hours  is  not  ex-  j

and  Morgan  division,  which  are  to  remain  as  at  present.     Freight  crews  will  not  be  re- j 
quired  to  make  more  than  two  turns  before  being  allowed  to  return  to  division  head- j 
quarters ;  provided,  there  are  other  crews  at  terminals  that  have  not  made  two  turns.  ' 
Freight  crews  will  be  given  lay-overs  at  division  headquarters  as  far  as  the  exigencies  > 
of  traffic  will  permit, 

10.  Train  crews*will  be  relieved  from  duty  at  main  line  terminals  when  road  en- 
gines are  detached  from  train,  as  at  present,  except  at  Valentine  and  Sanderson,  where 
crews  will  be  relieved  upon  arrival  of  the  trains. 

11.  When  trains  for  which  men  have  been  called  are  annulled  and  men  relieved 
from  duty,  they  will  be  paid  for  time  held,  between  the  time  specified  for  train  to  leave 
and  the  time  same  was  annulled,  at  schedule  rates  for  overtime  per  hour  or  fractional

than  three  hours,  and  will  stand  first  out. 

12.  Freight  train  crews  will  be  allowed  regular  freight  train  rates  for  handling

13.  All  runs  of  100  miles  or  less  will  be  considered  100  miles  ;  all  runs  over  100  miles 
will  be  paid  for  actual  mileage  made. 

14.  All  trainmen  will  be  paid  full  time  for  dead-heading. 

15.  Trainmen  and  Yardmen  when  held  as  witnesses  for  the  Company  will  be  paid 
for  actual  time  lost  and  all  necessary  expenses.     Time  held  attending  court  will  be 
ct  rtified  by  Company's  attorney.

switch  keys  and  one  white  and  one  red  hand-lantern,  and  charges  for  them  shall  be 
limited  to  one  dollar  each,  such  amount  to  be  refunded  at  the  termination  of  service, 
upon  the  return  to  the  Company  of  the  property  charged  for. 

18.  In  the  event  of  there  being  a  surplus  of  men,  the  oldest  in  the  service  on  their 
respective  divisions  shall  have  the  preference  of  employment.     In  case  of  reduction  of 
crews,  Brakemen  shall  be  entitled  to  their  guarantee,  according  to  their  age  of  con- 
tinuous service. 

19.  It  is  the  policy  of  the  Company  to  promote  freight  Conductors  from  freight 
Brakemen  and  passenger  Conductors  from  freight  Conductors.     In  making  promotions 
Division   Superintendents   will   consider  seniority  of  service ;    in  other   words,  those 
longest  in  service,  other  things  being  equal,  shall  have  the  preference.    When  a  reduc- 
tion in  forces  becomes  necessary  the  Company  will  retain  those  who  have  been  longest 
in  the  service  ;  that  is  to  say,  as  between  those  equally  honest,  sober  and  capable.    But 
"  seniority  "  is  not  to  be  made  a  cover  for  shortcomings  of  any  kind,  nor  shall  this  rule 
be  construed  so  as  to  prevent  the  Company  securing  the  most  efficient  service  that 
may  be  obtainable.      Each  Division  Superintendent  is  held  responsible  for  the  proper 
performance  of  all  duties  devolving  upon  the  men  working  under  his  supervision,  and, 


SOUTHERN  PACIFIC  RAILWAY.  147 

LS  he  is  in  the  best  position  to  look  after  the  welfare  of  the  Company,  he  shall  be  the 
Judge  regarding-  the  respective  merits  and  qualifications  of  those  working  under  his 
Ilirections.  If  any  employe  feels  that  an  injustice  has  been  done  him  under  this  rule, 
fie  has  the  right  of  appeal  to  the  General  Superintendent  or  the  General  Manager. 

20.  No  trainman  will  be  held  responsible  for  cut  journals  or  flat  wheels  where  it 
[ban  be  shown  that  proper  attention  had  been  given  by  the  crew. 

21.  At  all  terminals  where  trains  are  made  up,  the  car  inspector  will  test  all  air- 
>rake  cars  and  see  that  they  are  in  good  order,  and  the  Yardmaster  will  place  all  air- 
>rake  cars  ahead  as  far  as  practicable. 

22.  When  Yardmasters  have  a  train  made  up  and  ready  to  go  they  will  notify  the 
(Conductor,  and  will  not  place  any  more  cars  on  that  train  unless  the  Conductor  has 

ien  first  notified. 

23.  Trainmen  running  into  main  line  terminals  where  there  are  no  yard  crews, 
ind  required  to  do  switching,  will  be  paid  for  such  service  at  the  schedule  rate  of  over- 
It  ime.     Any  freight,  local  or  extra,  crew  required  to  do  switching  at  Victoria,  will  be 
paid  for  such  service  at  schedule  rates  for  overtime,  any  fractional  part  of  first  hour 
to  be  considered  one  hour.     Switching  in  schedule  time  will  be  considered  in  computing 
overtime.     Switching  at  Alexandria  will  be  paid  for  at  overtime  rates,  provided  more 

(than  one  hour  be  consumed. 

24.  Freight  crews,  after  making  two  division  trips  without  rest  will  be  entitled  to 
[eight  hours' rest  if  they  require  it  and  give  due  notice  thereof,  except  in  cases  of 
(wrecks  and  washouts. 

25.  Oldest  extra  Conductors  and  Brakemen  shall  do  all  extra  running  on  their  re- 
spective divisions,  but  in  no  case  shall  an  extra  Conductor  receive  less  than  a  Brake- 
man's  guarantee. 

26.  Passenger  Brakemen  and  Yardmen  can  claim  no  seniority  or  rights  in  train 
service.    Freight  Brakemen  or  Conductors  assigned  temporarily  to  passenger  or  branch 
service,  shall  not  lose  their  main  line  rights. 

27.  Trainmen  can  claim  no  seniority  or  rights  in  yards. 

28.  When  trainmen  leave  the  service  of  the  Company  they  shall  be  given  letters 
showing  time  of  service,  in  capacity  or  capacities  employed,  and  cause  of  leaving 
service  ;   provided  they  have  worked  on  division  sixty  days  or  more  ;  said  letters  to  be 
given  them  within  two  days  of  personal  application,  and  to  bear  office  stamp  and  Divi- 
sion Superintendent's  signature. 

29.  No  trainman  or  yardman  will  be  discharged  nor  suspended  without  proper 
cause.     In  case  a  yardman  or  trainman  believes  his  discharge  or  suspension  unju-t,  he 
may  make  a  written  statement  of  his  case  and  forward  to  Division  Superintend  nt.     In 
case  satisfaction  cannot  be  had  from  Division  Superintendent,  a  committee  of  three 
trainmen  or  yardmen  in  good  standing,  and  in  Company  service,  shall  be  designated  to 
meet  in  conjunction  with  Division  Superintendent  and  place  the  matter  before  the

*  Only  switchman  with  this  engine,  t  Assistant  Yardmaster.  ±  Brakemen.  §  This  crew  makes 
run  to  Glenwood,  and  helps  other  trains  up  the  hill  when  necessary.  Day  yardmen  in  Sacramento 
will  be  allowed  every  second  Sunday,  and  night  yardmen  will  have  every  third  Sunday  night,  off  duty 
without  deduction  of  wages.  If  yardmen  are  called  on,  unexpectedly,  on  the  days  they  are  laying  off, 
they  are  expected  to  respond,  and  will  be  paid  for  that  day's  work  over  and  above  what  constitutes  a 
month's  work.  San  Francisco,  West  Oakland,  Port  Costa,  Tracy,  Lathrop,  Sacramento  and  Los 
Angeles  yards,  ten  hours  will  constitute  a  day's  work;  any  excess  to  be  paid  pro  rata. 

GENERAL  RULES. 

1.  Main  line  Baggagemen  to  be  paid  $80  per  month.     Local  Baggagemen,  $75  per 
month ;  over  5,500  miles,  $80. 

2.  Where  mileage  is  not  given  in  schedules  it  is  understood  that  trainmen  will  do 
the  same  work  as  heretofore  for  the  wages  given ;  where  mileage  is  stated,  all  excess 
mileage  to  be  paid  pro  rata. 

3.  Where  a  Brakeman  acts  in  the  capacity  of  both  Brakeman  and  Baggagemas- 
ter,  and  receives  compensation  from  Wells,  Fargo  &  Co.,  this  is  a  privilege  we  accord 
him,  as  it  does  not  in  any  way  interfere  with  the  duties  devolving  upon  him  in  the  train 
service.     We  will  make  arrangements  of  this  kind  as  they  may  arise,  from  time  to 
"time,  on  the  various  divisions. 

4.  Division  Superintendents  will  make  such  regulations  in  relation  to  yard  service 
:as  they  may  deem  necessary,  in  denning  the  work  to  be  performed,  as  between  train- 
men and  yardmen. 

5.  Trainmen  will  be  called  for  duty  at  division  terminals,  where  Callers  are  main- 
tained, within  the  limits  prescribed  by  the  Division  Superintendent,  by  the  regular 
Caller,  one  hour,  as  nearly  as  practicable,  before  time  of  starting  trains.     The  Caller 
will  be  provided  with  a  book,  giving  names  of  crews  and  numbers  of  trains  for  which 
crews  are  wanted,  in  which  trainmen  must  sign  their  names  and  enter  the  time  of 
call.     The  working  time  of  all  trains  will  be  computed  from  the  time  crews  are  ordered 
out. 

6.  As  far  as  practicable  trains  scheduled  over  the  different  divisions  during  day- 
light will  do  the  way  work  on  their  respective  divisions.     The  Division  Superintendent 
Is  expected  to  use  his  best  judgment  in  these  cases. 

7.  Trainmen  running  snow  plows,  flangers,  pile  drivers,  construction  trains  and  all 
other  work  trains,  six  hours  or  less  will  constitute  half  a  day's  work ;   over  six  hours 
and  under  twelve  hours  a  day's  work,  at  regular  rates  of  pay.     Any  excess  over  twelve 
liours  to  be  paid  pro  rata.     In  computing  overtime,  fractions  less  than  half  an  hour 
•will  not  be  counted ;  thirty  minutes  or  more  will  be  counted  as  one  hour. 

8.  All  freight  train  crews  detained  on  the  road,  or  at  terminals,  on  scheduled 
-trains,  will  be  paid  overtime  as  follows :   For  any  delay  less  than  two  hours  ( late  of 
carded  time ),  nothing ;   for  two  hours  or  more,  payment  according  to  the  rate  of  30 
cents  and  20  cents  per  hour,  for  Conductors  and  Brakemen,  respectively.     Overtime 
for  regular  freight  trains  to  be  calculated  on  the  basis  of  the  card  time  of  the  train  ; 
for  extra  freights,  the  longest  schedule  in  the  direction  going  shall  be  the  basis  for 
calculating  overtime  under  this  rule. 


SOUTHERN   PACIFIC  RAILWAY.  153 

9.  When  trainmen  are  required  to  remain  on  duty  over  thirty  minutes  with  their 
trains,  after  arrival  at  main  line  terminals,  overtime  will  be  paid  at  the  rate  of  30 
cents  and  20  cents  per  hour  for  Conductors  and  Brakemen,  respectively. 

10.  Freight  train  crews  will  be  allowed  regular  freight  train  rates  for  handling- 
passenger  trains  or  passenger  equipment,  and  regular  freight  Conductors,  or  extra 
Conductors  who  are  not  extra  passenger  Conductors,  shall  receive  for  passenger  ser- 
vice not  less  than  they  would  have  earned  had  they  remained  in  freight  service. 

11.  When  freight  train  crews   are  held  waiting  for  stock  cars  to  be  cleaned, 
sanded,  loaded  or  unloaded,  they  shall  receive  overtime  at  the  rate  of  30  cents  and  20 
cents  per  hour  for  Conductors  and  Brakemen,  respectively,  provided  that  crews  so  held 
arrive  at  terminals  two  hours  or  more  late  of  card  time ;  east  of  Los  Angeles,  regard- 
less of  card  time. 

12.  When  a  train  is  abandoned  for  which  a  crew  has  been  called,  the  crew  shall 
be  paid  30  cents  for  Conductors  and  20  cents  for  Brakemen,  per  hour,  for  all  time  over 
one  hour  that  the  crew  may  be  held  between  the  time  of  calling  and  notice  of  abandon- 
ment of  such  train. 

13.  For  turn  arounds,  made  in  six  hours  or  less,  crews  will  be  allowed  half  day ;  for 
over  six  and  less  than  twelve  hours,  full  day;  for  all  time  over  twelve  hours,  Conduct- 
ors 30  cents  and  Brakemen  20  cents  per  hour.     For  a  turn  around  in  less  than  six  hours 
crews  shall  not  lose  their  turn  out. 

14.  Crews  working  fractional  parts  of  a  month  will  receive  pro  rata  of  the  guar- 
antee, if  they  fail  to  make  stipulated  number  of  miles.     Individuals  working  fractions 
of  a  month  will  be  paid  for  the  actual  mileage  made. 

15.  Trainmen  dead-heading  over  the  road  on  passenger  or  freight  will  be  allowed 
two-thirds  mileage.     When  going  over  the  road  with  caboose  and  an  engine,  full  time. 

16.  When  trainmen  are  held  waiting  for  their  own  crews,  after  having  been  taken 
off  regular  runs  and  sent  out  on  special  or  other  runs,  they  will  be  paid  full  compensa- 
tion for  such  time  as  they  are  so  held. 

17.  Trainmen  will  be  notified,  and  the  reasons  given,  when  time  is  not  allowed  as 
per  trip  report. 

18.  Trainmen  will  not  be  required  to  coal  engines  at«terminal  points,  excepting  on 
short  branch  lines  or  runs  where  the  mileage  is  not  excessive  and  the  work  is  light.     In 
cases  of  emergency  trainmen  will  coal  engines  between  terminal  points  and  at  regular 

ntermediate  coaling  stations. 

19.  When  a  trainman  has  served  sixteen  consecutive  hours  on  duty,  at  his  request 
he  may  have  at  least  eight  hours  rest;   excepting  in  cases  of  emergency,  such  as 
wrecks,  washouts,  etc. 

20.  Crews  unassigned  to  regular  runs  shall  run  first  in  first  out. 

21.  In  ordering  freight  crews  for  dead-heading  on  any  freight  train,  the  first  crew 
will  run  the  train,  the  next  crew  will  dead-head  and  will  be  the  first  out,  ahead  of 
accompanying  crew,  at  other  terminal. 

22.  When  a  trainman  is  detailed  to  attend  court  as  a  witness  in  behalf  of  the  Com- 
pany he  will  be  paid  for  such  service  at  the  same  rate  of  pay,  for  actual  time  absent 
:rom  duty,  as  he  would  have  received  if  regularly  employed  ;   he  will  also  be  allowed 
his  actual  living  expenses  while  away  from  home. 

23.  All  trainmen  will  be  regarded  as  in  the  line  of  promotion,  advancement  de- 
>ending  upon  the  faithful  performance  of  duty  and  capacity  for  increased  responsi- 
rility.     The  question  of  promotion  shall  be  understood  to  apply  to  employes  working  in 
the  same  department  and  same  branch  of  service. 

24.  When  a  trainman  believes  he  has  been  unjustly  treated,  he  shall  have  the 
right  to  present  his  case  personally  to  the  Division  Superintendent,  with  such  evidence 
n  his  favor  as  he  may  have  to  offer.     It  will  be  the  duty  of  the  Superintendent  to  in- 
vestigate the  matter  thoroughly  without  unnecessary  delay,  and  his  decision  will  be 
jjiven  to  the  trainman.     Should  the  latter  wish  to  appeal  to  higher  authority,  the 
Superintendent  will  give  such  trainman  his  decision  in  writing  ( excepting  in  cases 
nvolving  drunkenness,  or  fraudulent  or  dishonest  action ),  which  the  trainman  may 
present,  with  his  own  written  statement  of  his  case,  to  the  General  or  the  Assistant 

eneral  Superintendent. 

25.  Where  a  trainman  is  taken  from  his  run  for  an  investigation  for  an  alleged 
offense,  he  shall,  if  found  innocent,  be  paid  for  time  lost,  no  punishment  to  be  fixed 
without  a  thorough  investigation ;  ordinarily  said  investigation  to  be  held  within  five 
lays  from  the  date  of  removal  from  service. 

26.  Clearance  cards  will  be  given  to  all  deserving  employes  leaving  the  services  of 
the  Company. 

27.  The  Company  will  continue  the  practice  of  blacklisting  on  its^own  lines,  when 
employes  have  been  discharged  for  good  and  sufficient  cause,  such  as  dishonesty,  crimi- 
nal carelessness,  insubordination,  drunkenness,  violation  of  rules  whereby  the  Company's 
>roperty  is  endangered  or  destroyed,  and  offenses  of  like  character.     This  blacklist  is 
listributed  only  over  our  own  lines,  purely  as  a  matter  of  protection  to  the  interests  of 


154       TAMPICO  ROUTE.— TERM.  R.  R.  ASS'N  OF  ST.  L.— T.  C.  R'Y.— T.,  A.  A.  &  N.  M.  R'Y. 


this  Company,  which  practice  we  believe  inures  to  the  advantage  of  all  deserving- 
trainmen.  It  is  not  our  purpose  to  blacklist  a  trainman  dismissed  for  a  minor  offense, 
nor  because  of  incompetency  for  the  particular  work  in  which  he  may  be  engaged,  as 
he  may  be  very  useful  in  some  other  capacity. 

28.  Trainmen  will  be  disciplined  by  suspension  or  discharge,  as  each  case  may 
seem  to  justify. 

29.  Trainmen  leaving  the  service  will  be  paid  at  the  earliest  practicable  moment. 

30.  Letters  of  recommendation  will  be  filed  with  personal  records  of  trainmen, 
and  will  be  returned  upon  application  when  they  leave  the  service. 

31.  When  trainmen  are  transferred  from  one  point  to  another  for  convenience  of 
the  service,  their  families  and  household  effects  will  be  transported  free. 

32.  If,  in  the  judgment  of  a  Division  Superintendent,  a  Conductor  can  show  good 
cause  ( in  writing )  for  the  removal  of  a  Brakeman  working  with  him,  it  will  be  done.

vice will  have  the  preference.     The  Superintendent  is  to  be  the  judge  of  the  qualifica- 
tions.    Nothing  in  this  article  shall  be  construed  as  preventing  the  Company  from  em- 
ploying experienced  men  from  other  roads,  or  promoting  them  from  the  ranks  of  the

2,600  miles,  at  the  schedule  established.     Whenever  in  the  judgment  of  the  trainmen 
there  are  too  many  crews,   a  committee  of  not  less  than  three  Conductors  and  two 
Brakemen,  in  good  standing,  employed  on  the  division,  may  call  the  attention  of  the 
Trainmaster  or  Superintendent  to  such  surplus  of  men,  when  the  matter  will  be  fully! 
investigated,  and  if  the  conditions  are  found  to  warrant  it,  will  be  remedied,  it  being] 
always  understood  that  men  will  be  retained  under  seniority  of  rights,  as  provided  for 
in  Article  18. 

20.  Conductors  and  Brakemen  charged  with  offenses  involving  either  suspension  or 

t discharge,  shall  have  a  full  investigation  within  a  reasonable  time,  which,  except  in.j 
extreme  and  unavoidable  cases,  shall  not  exceed  five  days.  If,  after  investigation,  the 
Conductor  or  Brakeman  is  found  blameless,  he  shall  be  immediately  reinstated  and  re- 
ceive full  pay  for  all  time  lost  on  account  of  such  suspension  or  discharge.  Trainmen 
charged  with  offenses  involving  either  suspension  or  discharge,  excepting  in  cases  in- 
volving fraud  or  dishonesty,  will  be  advised  of  the  offenses  in  writing.  All  parties  cor 
cerned  will  be  present  at  the  investigation. 

21.  It  is  the  rule  and  intention  of  the  Company  to  run  through  freight  crews  first 
in  first  out.     But  circumstances  may  arise  where  this  should  be  changed  and  the  Com- 
pany reserves  the  right  to  do  so.     For  instance,  it  may  be  deemed  advisable  to  run  cer- 
tain crews  upon  certain  designated  trains,   and  the  Company  must  be  at  liberty  to 
arrange  such  matters  for  its  best  interests. 

22.  (a.)    Conductors  in  charge  of  trains  will  be  held  responsible  for  their  safe 
management,  and  shall  have  the  right  and  power  to  place  their  Brakemen  as  their 
best  judgment  may  dictate,  so  long  as  it  does  not  conflict  with  the  book  of  rules ;  but! 
nothing  in  this  clause  shall  give  the  Conductor  the  right  to  discriminate  against  an 
old  Brakeman.     All  things  being  equal  the  oldest  Brakeman  shall  have  the  preference 
to  the  rear  end. 

( b.)    In  any  case  where  a  Brakeman  fails  to  obey  orders  of  a  Conductor  he  shall  be 
suspended  or  discharged,  as  the  case  may  require,  upon  a  thorough  investigation  by  ( 
the  proper  officials. 

(c.)    No  Conductor  shall  be  required  to  take  out  more  than  one  inexperienced 
Brakeman  on  any  train. 

23.  Brakemen  who  have  never  worked  on  a  freight  train  shall  work  at  leas%t  one 
year  on  a  freight  train  before  they  will  be  entitled  to  an  examination  for  promotion' 
to  a  freight  Conductorship. 

24.  No  fines  shall  be  imposed  on  a  Conductor  or  Brakeman  for  damages. 

25.  There  shall  be  no  discrimination  against  any  employe  of  the  Company  on  ac- 
count of  being  a  member  of  any  of  the  railway  organizations. 

26.  (a.)    When  trainmen  or  yardmen  leave  the  service  of  the  Company  1hey  shall 
be  given  letters  stating  the  time  of  service,  in  what  capacity  or  capacities  employed, 
and  cause  of  leaving  the  service. 

(6.)  Letters  shall  be  given  three  days  from  application,  providing  the  men  shall 
have  worked  on  the  division  thirty  days  or  over,  and  shall  be  signed  and  stamped  by  j 
the  Division  Superintendent. 

27.  Trainmen  or  yardmen  who  have  been  discharged,  and  who  upon  further  investi- 
gation are  found  to  have  been  unjustly  dealt  with,  will  be  reinstated,  provided  the  mat- 
ter is  settled  within  two  months  from  the  time  of  discharge ;  otherwise,  if  re-employed, 
they  shall  rank  as  new  men  on  the  road  or  in  the  yard. 

28.  The  train  now  on  the  Marshfield  branch,  and  trains  Nos.  229  and  230,  between 
Rugby  Junction  and  Milwaukee,  are  to  be  known  and  classed  as  local  trains,  and  will 
do  the  same  work  as  at  present.

condition  of  the  road,  to  place  air  brakes  on  all  its  mogul  engines.     It  is  not  considerec 
that  the  putting  on  of  the  third  Brakeman  on  mogul  trains  is  necessary  for  the  service 

14.  Uniformity  of  height  of  cars  next  to  engines  and  cabooses  is  regarded  impor- 
tant, and  will  be  carried  out  as  often  as  may  be  consistent  without  unnecessary  switch- 
ing to  obtain  the  result.  Approved  as  above :

;il  such  decision  is  made. 

Promotions:  Trainmen  will  be  in  line  of  promotion  according-  to  their  time  of  ser- 
vice, dependent  upon  their  general  good  conduct  and  the  faithful  discharge  of  their 
duties,  and  their  ability  to  assume  increased  responsibilities,  the  Superintendent  of 
Transportation  to  be  judge  of  such  qualifications.  The  Railroad  Company  has  the 
right  to  employ  one  Conductor  to  one  Brakeman  promoted.  Promotion  in  the  train 
service  to  be  confined  to  the  ranks  of  train  employes  as  above.  When  practicable, 
Conductors  and  Brakemen  shall  be  assigned  to  regular  runs.  On  all  freight  trains  ex-

180 


CHICAGO  GREAT  WESTERN  RAILWAY. 


otherwise.  The  right  to  regular  runs  will  be  governed  by  merit,  ability  and  seniority. 
Everything  being  equal,  the  Conductors  and  Brakemen  longest  in  faithful  service  will! 
have  the  preference.  When  the  freight  traffic  is  so  light  that  the  crews  in  service 
are  not  able  to  make  reasonable  wages,  crews  will  be  taken  off,  beginning  with  the 
youngest  men,  until  the  crews  left  in  service  are  able  to  make  reasonable  wages.

annot  be  rigidly  carried  out  at  all  times,  and  the  proper  officers  of  the  Company  will 
rary  therefrom  only  in  case  of  an  emergency.     Everything  being  equal,  the  oldest 
Conductors  and  Brakemen  in  the  service  of  the  Company  will  have  choice  of  runs  upon 
.heir  respective  divisions.     In  case,  however,  the  oldest  man  declines  to  take  the  run 
o  which  his  age  in  the  service  entitles  him,  the  man  superseding  him  to  be  ahead  of 
dm  in  line  of  further  or  future  promotion. 

3.  Freight  trainmen  will  be  called,  at  division  terminal  stations  by  a  train  Caller, 
riio  will  be  provided  with  a  book  in  which  the  men  called  will  register  their  names,  to- 
'ether  with  the  time  they  are  called.     The  district  within  which  trainmen  will  be 
ailed  will  be  established  by  the  Division  Superintendent.     This  will  not  apply  to  Kan- 
as  City  terminal  and  branch  runs. 

4.  The  working  time  of  all  freight  trainmen  will  commence  from  the  time  the 
rain  is  ordered  to  leave. 

5.  Whenever  freight  trainmen  are  called  and  for  any  reason,  other  than  their  own 
ction,  do  not  go  out  and  are  held  on  duty  less  than  five  hours,  they  will  be  allowed 
fty  miles.     If  held  on  duty  over  five  hours  they  will  be  allowed  ten  miles  per  hour  for 
til  time  so  held.    Crews  rele*ased  after  being  held  seven  and  one-half  hours  or  less

in  employe  thinks  his  sentence  unjust  he  shall  have  the  right,  within  ten  days,  to  refer 
is  case  by  written  statement  to  the  Division  Superintendent.     Within  ten  days  after 
he  receipt  of  this  notice  his  case  shall  have  a  thorough  investigation,  at  which  he 
nay  be  present  if  he  so  desires.     In  the  event  of  it  not  being  to  the  convenience  of  the 
Company  to  have  present  the  party  making  the  charge,  written  statement  of  the  ab- 
entee  will  be  considered  sufficient.     In  case  of  intoxication  or  insubordination  dis- 
nissal  will  follow  without  hearing.     In  case  suspension  or  dismissal  is  found  to  be 

njust  he  shall  be  reinstated  and  paid  for  all  time  lost. 

8.  When  freight  traffic  is  so  light  that  crews  cannot  make  regular  wages  (  about 
1,000  miles  per  month )  crews  will  be  taken  off,  in  the  order  of  promotion,  until  crews 
•emaining  are  able  to  make  about  that  amount.     Conductors  thus  reduced  shall,  as 
ar  as  practicable,  be  given  preference  as  Brakemen  until  such  time  as  the  increase  of 
msiness  warrants  their  reinstatement  as  Conductors.     This  not  to  include  crews  as- 
igned  to  regular  runs.     Every  employe  should  understand  that  it  is  his  privilege  and 
uty  to  make  a  written  appeal  to  his  Superintendent  whenever,  by  promotion,  reduc- 
ion  or  assignment,  he  deems  that  injustice  has  been  done  him.

he  expiration  of  any  run.     The  crews  following  will  have  the  right  to  run  around  any 
rew  lying  over  for  rest.     Crews  will  not  be  released  between  division  terminals.

according  to  age  on  respective  divisions  and  their  ability  to  assume  the  duties  of  Con-

PASSENGER  TRAINMEN'S  SCHEDULE. 

1.  Compensation:    Extra  compensation  shall  be  allowed  Passenger  Trainmen  for 
all  mileage  made  in  excess  of  their  regular  runs,  except  on  suburban  trains,  and  where 
the  mileage  is  less  than  2,600  miles.     Passenger  Trainmen  called  upon  to  do  freight 
work  will  receive  the  same  compensation  as  men  in  freight  service.      When  a  Passen- 
ger Conductor  is  taken  off  his  regular  run  to  run  specials,  or  extras,  he  shall  receive! 
3  cents  per  mile  for  such  service.     When  a  Passenger  Conductor  doubles  for  such  Con- 
ductor, taken  off  his  regular  run,  he  shall  receive  such  compensation  as  such  Conduc-; 
tor  would  receive,  in  addition  to  his  regular  salary.     No  deduction  shall  be  made  forj 
any  time  lost  on  account  of  snow  blockades  or  washouts.     On  divisions  where  extra* 
Passenger  Conductors  are  employed,   their  pay  shall  be  $100.00  per  month,  and  the$ 
shall  not  be  called  upon  to  do  freight  work.     Milk  Conductors  will  be  paid  $55.00  per 
month. 

2.  Kights  and  Privileges  of  Passenger  Trainmen:     No  rights  heretofore  enjoyed  by 
Passenger  Trainmen  shall  be  abrogated.     The  rights  of  Passenger  Baggagemen  and 
Brakemen  commence  on  the  day  of  their  first  trip,  and  they  shall  have  the  choice  ofi 
runs  to  which  their  age  as  Brakemen  or  Baggagemen  entitles  them,  provided  they  are 
morally  and  intellectually  fitted  for  it  in  the  opinion  of  their  Superintendent.     Passen- 
ger Brakemen  will  be  promoted  to  the  position  of  Baggagemen  in  their  regular  order 
where  they  are  competent,  the  Superintendent  of  the  Division  to  be  the  judge.     Extra 
Passenger  Brakemen  will  be  promoted  to  regular  runs  according  to  date  of  their  fiist 
trip  in  passenger  service,  and  the  compensation  for  such  service  will  be  the  same  as 
the  Brakemen  would  receive  for  whom  they  run.     Passenger  Trainmen  will  be  allowed 
to  lay  off  on  account  of  sickness  of  themselves  or  their  families,  to  serve  on  committees 
or  for  other  good  and  sufficient  reasons,  providing  due  notice  is  given  the  proper  officer, 


CHICAGO   &   NORTHWESTERN   RAILWAY.  183 

b  that  their  places  may  be  filled.  Any  Passenger  Trainman  having-  been  absent  to  ex- 
eed  six  consecutive  months,  thereby  forfeits  all  rights  with  the  Company,  except  in 

|ase  of  sickness,  or  where  leave  of  absence  has  been  granted.  No  leave  of  absence 
ill  be  granted  to  exceed  one  year,  nor  re-instatements  made  after  one  year's  contin- 

ious  absence,  except  in  case  of  sickness.     Where  passenger  crews  run  over  more  than 

|ne  freight  division,  the  oldest  Passenger  Trainmen  will  be  considered  as  entitled  to 
romotipn  to  passenger  runs  as  above.  Nothing  in  this  article  shall  be  considered  as 
reventing  the  Company  from  employing  experienced  men  when  the  service  requires  it. 
yhen  a  Passenger  Trainman  leaves  one  division  of  his  own  accord,  to  work  on  another 
ivision,  he  will  be  considered  a  new  employe,  but  should  he  be  transferred  by  order  of 
e  Company,  the  same  right  he  possessed  on  the  first  division  will  be  retained  on  his 
;turn.  The  employment  of  Brakemen  and  Baggagemen  is  placed  in  the  hands  of  the 
Division  Superintendent,  but  Brakemen  will  in  all  cases  be  placed  as  Conductor's  best 

|idgment  may  dictate.

Ind  the  compensation  shall  be  as  follows:     (a)  For  the  first  year's  actual  service  after 

romotion  from  a  Brakeman,  $68.00  per  month,     (b)  For  the  second  year's  service,  and 
[hereafter,  $78.00  per  month.     There  shall  be  two  grades  of  Freight  Brakemen  estab- 
.shed,  and  the  compensation  shall  be  as  follows:     (a)  For  the  first  three  months  of  ac- 
tual service,  $45. 00  per  month,     (b)  For  all  service  thereafter,  $52.00  per  month.     Con- 
uctors  of  way  freight  trains  will  be  paid  $85.00,  and  Brakemen  $60.00  for  2,600  miles  or 
ess,  made  in  any  one  month.     All  mileage  made  in  any  one  month  in  excess  of  2,600 
pies  will  be  paid  for  extra  at  the  rate  of  3i  cents  per  mile  for  Conductors  and  2  3-10 
ents  per  mile  for  Brakemen.     (a)  Conductors  on  work  trains  will  be  paid  not  less  than 
85.00  and  Brakemen  $55.00  per  month  of  26  days,  10  hours  or  less  to  constitute  a  day's 
rork,  providing  crews  are  not  called  for  further  duty  the  same  date.     All  time  made

id  2  1-10  cents  per  mile  for  Brakemen.     (b)  Work  Train  Conductors  having  charge 
gangs  of  men  and  acting  as  foreman  will  receive  $15.00  in  addition  to  the  $85.00  per 
lonth.     The  pay  of  crews  on  mixed  trains  shall  be  computed  at  freight  rates.     Freight 
onduc tors  temporarily  in  passenger^  service  will  be  paid  freight  mileage.     Tecnpo- 
irily  is  construed  to  mean  anything  less  than  one  month.  One  month  and  over  will  be 
lid  for  at  passenger  rates.     In  no  case,  however,  shall  an  extra  Conductor  receive 
ore  pay  for  a  part  of  a  month  than  the  regular  Conductor  would  have  received  for 
ic  whole  month,  even  should  the  mileage  exceed  the  amount  of  a  full  month's  pay. 
-ainmen  attending  court  under  instructions  from  the  Company  will  be  paid  100  miles 
day  and  living  expenses  while  away  from  home. 

2.  Rules  for  Computation:    The  monthly  compensation  is  to  be  based  on  a  mileage 
jf  2,600  miles  or  26  days  per  month,  and  any  excess  over  this  mileage  made  by  Freight 

tinmen  will  be  paid  for  in  the  same  proportion  as  the  monthly  compensation  is  to 
,600  miles.  If  the  mileage  of  a  Freight  Trainman  falls  below  2,600  miles  in  any  one 

)onth,  and  he  has  been  ready  for  service,  losing  no  time  on  his  own  account,  in  such 
lases  full  time  for  2,600  miles  shall  be  allowed.  The  first  year's  service  is  to  consist  of 
2  calendar  months.  Should  it  become  necessary  to  reduce  the  force  on  account  of 
(ecreased  business,  and  the  Conductor  still  remains  in  the  employ  of  the  Company  as 
Jrakeman,  his  promotion  is  to  date  from  the  time  he  made  his  first  trip  as  Conductor, 
|.nd  he  shall  receive  the  highest  rate  paid  Brakemen.  Freight  Trainmen  will  be  no- 

fied  when  time  is  not  allowed  as  per  trip  report.  Brakemen  who  are  laid  off  on  ac- 
lount  of  decreased  business  will  be  reinstated  and  hold  their  rights  as  per  Article  8, 
[rovided  they  report  for  work  when  wanted. 

3.  Extra  Mileage:    All  Freight  Trainmen  on  regular  runs  will  receive  compensa- 
ion  for  extra  mileage  made  outside  of  their  regular  runs.      All  runs  of  less  than  100 
liles  shall  be  computed  as  one  day's  work,  provided  the  men  do  not  go  out  again  the 
Line  day,  except  on  branch  runs  where  the  mileage  is  less  than  60  miles  per  day,  where 
ie  Company  reserves  the  right  to  make  special  agreements  with  its  Trainmen  as  to

the  Division  Superintendent  in  rank,  he  shall  have  the  right  to  appeal  to  the  Division 
Superintendent  for  a  full  and  impartial  investigation.      Should  the  Division  Superin- 
tendent fail  to  adjust  the  case,  the  Trainman  may  appeal  to  the  General  Superintendent 
or  the  General  Manager.     No  fault  shall  be  found  with  a  Trainman  who  refuses  to  go

Trainmen  shall  be  abrogated.    -Conductors  shall  have  the  right  to  object  to  Brakemen 
for  cause,  and  when  objections  are  sustained  by  facts,  they  will  be  furnished  other 
men.     In  the  choosing  of  runs  by  Freight  Brakemen,  it  shall  be  fully  understood  that 
it  shall  be  considered  no  choice  in  runs,  running  first  in,   first  out.     When  Trainmen, 
have  been  in  the  service  of  the  Company  for  three  months  or  more,  and  leave  the  ser- 
vice, they  will,  if  desired,  be  furnished  a  letter  stating  the  time  and  kind  of  service, 
and  whether  leaving  on  account  of  resignation  or  dismissal.     Trainmen  will  not  be  re- 
quired to  pay  fines  on  account  of  breakage.     When  a  change  of  a  division  or  train  run 
requires  men  to  change  their  place  of  residence,  they  will  be  furnished  free  transpor- 
tation for  their  families  and  household  goods.     Trainmen  will  be   allowed  to  lay  off  on 
account  of  the  sickness  of  themselves,  their  families,  to  serve  on  committees,  or  for 
other  good  and  sufficient  reasons,  provided  due  notice  is  given  to  the  proper  officer?, 
so  that  their  places  may  be  filled  with  other  men.     This  does  not  permit  Trainmen  to 
leave  the  division  on  which  they  are  employed  without  permission  from  their  Superin- 
tendent.    Any  Trainman  having  been  absent  to  exceed  six  consecutive  months,  there- 
by forfeits  all  rights  with  the  Company,  except  in  case  of  sickness,  or  where  leave  of 
absence  has  been  granted.     No  leave  of  absence  shall  be  granted  to  exceed  one  year, 
nor  re-instatements  made  after  one  year's  continuous  absence,  except  in  case  of  sick- 
ness.    The  rights  of  a  Conductor  commence  on  the  day  of  his  promotion,  and  he  shall 
have  the  choice  of  runs  to  which  his  age  as  Conductor  entitles  him,  providing  he  is  in- 
tellectually and  morally  fitted  for  it  in  the  opinion  of  his  Superintendent.     The  rights 
of  a  Brakeman  commence  on  the  day  of  his  first  trip,  and  he  will  have  the  choice  of 
runs  to  which  his  age  in  the  service  as  Brakeman  entitles  him, — merit  and  compe- 
tency being  equal  in  the  judgment  of  the  Conductor.     The  employment  of  Brakemen 
is  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  Division  Superintendents,  or  their  representatives;  but 
Brakemen  will,  in  all  cases,  be  placed  as  the  Conductor's  best  judgment  may  dictate. 
It  a  Brakeman  transfers  from  either  the  Freight  or  Passenger  Department  to  the 
other,  he  forfeits  all  rights  in  the  Department  which  he  leaves,  and  will  be  classed  as 
a  new  employe,— except  in  case  of  disability.     In  examining  men  on  the  Book  of  Rules 
for  promotion  to  Conductors,  the  oldest  Brakemen  must  have  the  preference,  merit 
and  competency  being  equal.     The  Company  reserves  the  right,  however,  to  hire  Con- 
ductors outside  of  the  employes  of  the  Company,  should  the  service  demand  it.    Where 
passenger  crews  run  over  more  than  one  Freight  Division,  the  oldest  Freight  Conductor 
on  either  division  will  be  considered  as  entitled    to  promotion   to   passenger  runs  as 
above.     Nothing  in  this  article  shall  be  considered  as   preventing  the  Company  from 
employing  experienced  men  when  the  service  requires  it.     Conductors  having  charge 
of  trains  will  be  held  responsible  for  their  safe  management,  and  shall  have  the  right 
to  place  their  Brakemen  as  their  best  judgment  may  dictate.     When  a  Trainman  leaves 


CHICAGO  &  NORTHWESTERN  RAILWAY. 


185 


one  Division,  of  his  own  accord,  to  work  on  another  Division,  he  shall  be  considered  a 
new  employe,  but  should  he  be  transferred  by  order  of  the  Company,  the  same  rights  he 
possessed  on  the  first  Division  shall  be  maintained  on  his  return  to  the  same.

the  name  of  each  Trainman  and  his  residence.     Superintendents  shall  agree  with  their

switching,  shall  be  classed  as  way  freights,  and  crews  shall  receive  compensation  ac- 
cordingly i     This  shall  not  be  construed  to  apply  to  through  trains  setting  out  or  pick- 
ing up  car  loads,  or  handling  small  lots  of  local  freight,  in  case  of  emergency. 

12.  Turn-arounds:    Turn-arounds  shall  be  considered  as  follows:     All  runs  turning
